HANGOVER 3? Helms Doesn’t Think So!
‘The Hangover‘ star Ed Helms has warned fans not to expect a third installment in the comedy franchise – because helmer Todd Phillips won’t “let that happen”.
The moviemaker’s 2009 comedy, starring Helms alongside Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis, Justin Bartha and Heather Graham, turned out to be a critical and commercial success, notching a massive $467 million (£311 million) at the worldwide box office AND winning a Golden Globe award for Best Picture – Musical or Comedy.
The cast are currently filming the sequel, which will see the characters travel to Thailand for a wedding, but Helms stresses they won’t be reprising their roles a third time!
When asked about the possibility of another sequel, he tells the Los Angeles Times:
“I doubt it. I don’t think Todd would let that happen… I would hope that The Hangover kind of has a dignified legacy, if that makes any sense.”
Could this be a good thing?
