Director Todd Philips has confirmed that he’s midway through the script for the sequel to this years box office smash The Hangover.

The Hangover 2 will reunite the trio of Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis, though don’t expect Philips to simply redo the stag-party plot of the first movie.

He had this to say on The Hangover 2:

“What people loved about The Hangover was not Las Vegas or the bachelor party but these three characters. I think you can take those characters and put them in other situations, and you don’t need the sell of Vegas and a bachelor party and all that other stuff.”

I have to agree with Mr. Philips on this one, the characters were what made The Hangover for me and there’s plenty of social events that he could expose them to without doing another Las Vegas trip.
