SCHNEIDER RUNS OUT OF DEUCE

The comic played the unlikely gigolo in two movies, but now insists the franchise is "done".

He tells website MovieHole.net, "(I was) chasing a movie to chase a hit (with the first sequel)... It worked before, so we thought the sequel might work.

"If you’re lucky to capture a little bit of magic it’s like capturing lightning in a jug. To try and recapture that is foolish. That to me, artistically and financially - the studio made, like, a behemoth amount out of the first one, like $350 million - was such a good lesson.

"I was kinda relieved when it (the sequel) didn’t hit big, because it meant I’ll never have to do it again. I don’t want to be that guy."
