Will Packer Teases Exciting ‘Girls Trip’ Sequel with Script in Hand
Ah yes, another glorious chapter in the “let’s resurrect fan-favorites” saga. Will Packer, the mastermind producer behind the wildly successful 2017 comedy “Girls Trip,” has dropped a tantalizing tidbit while gracing Bravo’s “Watch What Happens Live.” This time, he’s armed with an actual script, and let me tell you, it’s about time! Packer confirmed that “Girls Trip 2” is officially in the works, and this time, he’s eyeing an exotic locale for our favorite girl gang’s next escapade. While he’s playing coy about the specifics—probably to keep us all on the edge of our seats—he did drop hints that the sequel could coincide with the AfroFuture musical festival in Ghana, which sounds positively fabulous.
As if the anticipation couldn’t get any juicier, Packer confirmed that the original cast will return, bringing back the powerhouse quartet of Regina Hall, Tiffany Haddish, Jada Pinkett Smith, and Queen Latifah, with the potential inclusion of some fresh faces to spice things up. Because why not add a sprinkle of new talent to this recipe for success?
For those who’ve been living under a rock, “Girls Trip” raked in over $140 million at the box office, which is a staggering feat considering its modest $19 million budget. Directed by Malcolm D. Lee and penned by Kenya Barris and Tracy Oliver, the original film was a delightful romp through friendship and fun, set against the vibrant backdrop of New Orleans’ Essence Music Festival. So, what does this sequel mean for us? It means more laughter, more unforgettable moments, and perhaps a few life lessons wrapped in a fabulous bow.
Class dismissed—now go ahead and mark your calendars for what promises to be another wildly entertaining journey with our favorite friends.
