Exclusive: Johnny Knoxville On ‘Jackass 3.5’

We now know that on April Fools Day the pranksters are premiering Jackass 3.5 on the newly reminted Joost.com, now part of the Adconion Media Group.

The feature length movie, which will be distributed first as a compilation of several web episodes, features over 80 minutes of all-new footage shot during Jackass 3D

Highlights include Steve-O’s painful introduction to a snapping turtle, Bam Margera’s rocket-powered trip to Uranus, and Chris Pontius’s wood pecker. “His poor penis,” lamented Tremaine.

When asked about his penchant for sailor outfits, Knoxville gave this coy response: “I’m just crazy about seamen.” Speaking of which, Jackass 3.5 also features the only successful prank pulled on Knoxville, in which his face lotion was infused with horse semen. It went undetected by Knoxville for over a month until it was revealed at the Jackass 3D cast and crew screening. Knoxville’s take:

Jackass 3.5 premieres on Joost.com on April 1, 2011. Here’s the trailer:
