Warner already developing 'Hangover' sequel?

Believe it or not, but the answer to that crazy question is YES! Warner Bros. has already ordered a sequel to Todd Phillips' upcoming comedy "The Hangover."

Now, why is that a crazy question again? Well, first and foremost, "The Hangover" won't open until June 5, 2009. That's still two months away.

Second, studios first tend to see how a film is performing at the box office and what kind of audience reception it gets, but in this case, WB must be convinced they have something really awesome heading our way.

Anyway, in the first film, three best friends literally lose their best friend during his wild bachelor party in Las Vegas. Together, they have to figure out what went wrong the night before. Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis, Heather Graham, Jeffrey Tambor, Justin Bartha and Ed Helms star.

According to Variety, Warner also wants director Todd Phillips to write a script for the sequel with Scott Armstrong. Phillips, who also helmed "Old School," is set to direct the follow-up as well.

All I can say at this point is that I've liked what I've seen of "The Hangover" so far. The trailers sure are funny, so check out the latest one right here.
