This might come as a shock to you, but there will be a third chapter of The Hangover. I know, you just totally spat your Diet Coke all over the computer screen. I think Todd Phillips started talking about this being a possible trilogy before the second film even came out, with it being pretty much a certainty that it would be a box office smash. It was, with the sequels $580M surpassing the receipts of the first film by more than $100M. Not bad for a film many people felt was a little redundant.
Bradley Cooper was on the Graham Norton Show to talk about the upcoming DVD release of The Hangover Part II, and revealed some previously unknown information about what is expected to be the final film in the boozy trilogy, and those who thought the sequel was too familiar will enjoy what else he has to say....
Cooper: "I hope we're going to start shooting in September. I know Todd Phillips is working on the script. We adhered to the formula in the second one, [and] the third would close the trilogy. I think it'll take place in L.A. and not adhere to the structure, it might be different."
That means we can probably expect to see The Hangover part III some time in 2013, where The Wolfpack will no doubt clean up once again. I didn't have any problem with the last film, knowing going in that it would follow the same model. Some of the freshness and spontanaity of the humor was lost as a result, but not enough to dampen the entire experience. I am curious to see where this one goes. Could we possibly see Alan(Zach Galifianakis), the only member of the group not hitched, actually tie the knot? [Moviehole]
