The Best Man 2......in the making



I am super excited about this sequel, Malcolm D. Lee the original director of "The Best Man" (filmed in 1999) has gotten the green light from Universal Studios to make "The Best Man 2" original cast and all.  Taye Diggs, Nia Long, Morris Chestnut, Terence Howad, Sanaa Lathan, Harold Perrineau, & Monica Calhoun.  Last year there were pics of the cast reuniting after 12 years, and rumors were going around about the movie, but it now they have the green light to GO and I cant be any happier.

Universal has set Malcolm D. Lee to write, direct and produce Best Man 2, a sequel to the 1999 film. Lee wrote and directed the original, a comedy in which a writer (Taye Diggs) is preparing to be the best man for his football player buddy (Morris Chestnut), but the timing is bad because the writer’s autobiographical novel is about to pop and it describes how the best man bedded the bride. Terrence Howard, Harold Perrineau, Nia Long and Sanaa Lathan also starred. The original grossed $35 million. Lee’s plan is to ask the original cast to reprise; in fact, I’m told the whole idea came out of a reunion dinner he held with most of the cast members, and they sparked to the idea of a re-team and so did the studio.



Its so much that could have happened, did Lance and Mia's life move on, did she find out that he knew about her and Lance, Did Jordan find a man through it all, is Murch still with Candy, How did Quentin and Shelby turn out after sleeping with each other the night of the wedding.  OMG I cant wait!!!
