Jay and Silent Bob are set to return as a VR series, because that's the world we live in now.

The Kevin Smith duo, who first appeared in 1994 cult movie Clerks, will lead the STXsurreal short-form series, part of a roster of new projects from VR division of STX Entertainment.

According to Deadline, the series will be from the perspective of Silent Bob as Jay leads the pair in a string of idiotic adventures. Well, that makes sense.

Smith himself will direct, write and produce the series and will reunite with Jason Mewes (who plays Jay) for the show, though a release date is yet to be confirmed.

The pair are also getting a reunion (of sorts) as Smith will appear in front of the camera alongside Mewes in his upcoming episode of The Flash.

"We shot a scene, Jason and I, where we play two security guards in The Flash," he explained. "And it's not Jay and Silent Bob, but Jason speaks and I don't. So there you go."

Jay and Silent Bob are not the only ones getting the VR treatment at STXsurreal, with The Office's Ed Helms fronting a new comedy series called New Tricks.

On top of that are an untitled project starring Guardians of the Galaxy's Dave Bautista, a sci-fi thriller from John Wick writer Derek Kolstad and a spin-off of STX movie franchise Mile 22.
