Though Warner Bros has yet to green light another of Todd Philip's Hangover films, the acclaimed comedy director has a clear picture of where he would take the third and final film.
In the follow-up to the record-breaking hit comedy “The Hangover,” Phil, Stu, Alan and Doug travel to exotic Thailand for Stu’s wedding. After the unforgettable bachelor party in Las Vegas, Stu is taking no chances and has opted for a safe, subdued pre-wedding brunch. However, things don’t always go as planned. What happens in Vegas may stay in Vegas, but what happens in Bangkok can’t even be imagined.
During last week's press conference to promote the now widely popular Hangover sequel, director Todd Philips revealed that he already has a clear picture of where he would take the Wolfpack for the next installment of the comedy franchise:
“If we were to do a third one, if the audience [and] if the desire was there—I think we have a clear idea where that would head and it’s certainly not in the same template you’ve seen these movies and obviously we always envisioned it as a trilogy as you can imagine. The third would very much a finale and an ending. The most I could say about it and I haven’t discussed it with these actors is that it is not following that template but very much a new idea.”
The Hangover Part II was released in theaters last Thursday and has since garnered huge box office numbers. Though Warner Bros has yet to green light the next, and possibly final, film it now seems to be an inevitability. After already taking on two of the world's most well known cities of debauchery, there seems to be only one locale that would truly be worthy of ending the series “Probably Amsterdam. If you think of the coolest, craziest cities in the world, it would have to be Las Vegas, Bangkok and Amsterdam,” said actress Jamie Chung. Justin Bartha was quick back up Chung's statement, “Amsterdam could be a different kind of hangover. It could be fun. And Zach Galifanakis will probably already be there.”
