The Morning After...After

Summer '09 comedy hit The Hangover is getting the inevitable sequel with director Todd Phillips calling action again once he wraps work on the road trip comedy "Due Date" reports Variety.



'Date' re-teams Phillips with Zach Galifianakis, Hangover co-star and the story of an expectant dad and his unlikely travel companion (Galifianakis) who race cross-country in hopes of making it home for the birth of his first child.

Production on that film will begin October 6th for release early June 2010.

The Hangover 2 has the same schedule a year later, kicking off production next October for a Memorial Day 2011 release.

Phillips and Scot Armstrong began writing a script for the sequel after highly successful early test screenings. The film has achieved a $210 million domestic gross thus far, the second highest grossing R-rated comedy ever behind the $234 million gross of Beverly Hills Cop 25 years ago.
