In Post And Pre

Director Todd Phillips talked about his upcoming film Due Date and The Hangover (on DVD and Blu-ray Tuesday) sequel with the gang at Coming Soon.

Robert Downey Jr. and scene-stealer Zach Galifianakis star in Due a road movie about a soon-to-be father (Downey Jr.) and his cross-country trip to make it back in time for his baby’s birth — with a dubious passenger (Galifianakis) who’s along for the ride

Well apparently the crew of the pic were "all in awe of Zach... he's totally different (in' Date') than he is in 'The Hangover'".

Right now-the film runs 125 minutes but Todd plans to cut down to an even 100 - "I always subscribe to: it should be 100 minutes. So, that's always around where it lands… Editing you have to be ruthless on yourself"

Date arrives in the U.S. on November 5th 2010.

The director also says he's currently working on the script for "The Hangover" follow-up which plans to start shooting this Summer for a Memorial Day 2011 release. Don't expect a return to Vegas though.

"What's really ultimately appealing about 'The Hangover' is these four guys and their interaction. It's not even Vegas. It's not so much the device as it is the characters… you can take those guys and put them somewhere else and go through a new set of situations and circumstances and hopefully it's just as interesting".
