Jack Black wants to make a sequel to 2006 comedy drama 'Nacho Libre'.

The 49-year-old actor and comedian would love to make a follow up to the 2006 comedy drama, in which he stars in the titular role.

Speaking on The Jonathan Ross Show, he confessed: "I've always wanted to do another 'Nacho Libre.'"

The film follows Ignacio, or Nacho to his friends, who works as a cook in a Mexican monastery, and after needing money to feed orphans he decides to raise money for the children by moonlighting as a Lucha Libra wrestler who disguises his identity.

Meanwhile, Jack has interesting memories from the shooting of the first movie and recently confessed that he pooped in a field while filming the movie - and the whole cast and crew were watching.

He said: "I was on 'Nacho Libre' in Mexico and I got a little bit of 'Montezuma's revenge'. I had a little attack in the middle of a scene. I said 'where's the nearest restroom?' They said 'OK. If you just jump in a van, we'll take you back to set, and that's where the honey wagons are with the restrooms'.

"I just ran because I knew I wasn't getting into a van. I just ran into a field nearby. But everyone from the crew could see me. There was no hiding. So basically I had to relieve myself in front of a crew of 72 people, with my trusty assistant handing my paper. It was very horrifying."
