Cast officially signed on for The Hangover 2
The negotiations took six months, and each actor is reportedly making $5 million apiece against 4% of the first dollar gross the film incurs. Director Todd Phillips will also be returning, and will be paid $10 million for his troubles. It was noted that the deal to get all three stars back in place took so long because all three actors combined made less than $1 million collectively on the first film. And they did not have options locking them into a sequel. The actors' combined team of managers, agents, and attorneys negotiated together to insure that a sequel did not go forth unless all three stars were paid well this time around.
At this time, the script for The Hangover 2 is still being polished, and filming is being planned for October if Ed Helms can work it into his shooting schedule for The Office. The Hangover 2 is planning a 2011 Memorial Day weekend release date.
The Hangover Part II was released May 26th, 2011 and stars Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis, Ed Helms, Justin Bartha, Ken Jeong, Jamie Chung, Paul Giamatti, Nick Cassavetes. The film is directed by Todd Phillips.

NO WHY?!?! I dont like it! A sequel is probably going to suck. Leave it alone. It doesn't need a sequel!

I don't know, I think the first one ws a hit because it came out of nowhere almost. I'm not sure I'm looking foward to a sequel. Just let a classic be a classic.
