He continued to hint on Twitter at some ' behind - the - scenes ' work being done on said movie.

On April 15, the production launched a Kickstarter campaign, much like the hugely successful 2013 campaign by Veronica Mars to get the cancelled show made into a feature film. The project 's goal was to raise $1.5 million by May 15 in order to fund the film. There were rewards for donating to campaign, such as personalized tweets from the cast ( for donating $10 ), shot and pint glasses with the BMS logo ( $20 ), and a speaking role in the film ( for a $10,000 donation ). On May 11, 2014, the Kickstarter goal of $1.5 million was reached. On May 15, 2014 the Kickstarter campaign ended, with the final funds raised being $1,911,827 from 23,999 backers. In May 2014, it was announced Jay Chandrasekhar would be the director of the film. However, on September 28, 2014, Lev L. Spiro was announced as the new director of BMS : The Movie. The crew started filming in late 2014 on location in Wilmington, North Carolina. Filming was reportedly complete by December 14, 2014. The film, titled Blue Mountain State : The Rise of Thadland, was officially released on February 2, 2016.
