He'd been saying that since the mid 2000's when Adult Swim picked up Pee-Wee's playhouse. He would always talk about a darker more adult Pee-Wee's Playhouse, a sequel to Big Adventures and I think a third project but can't remember. The one Netflix released a few years ago I believe he said was different from his original idea that he was still trying to pitch. Very impressed how he hid his age in that movie!

I didn't really grow up with Pee-Wee but fell in love with Pee-Wee's playhouse as a teen when it aired on Adult Swim. I never liked any of the movies though. But yeah I don't think any of the projects would've happened even if he had not died today, it seemed no one was interested in picking them up which sucks since I found the character had plenty of potential.
