Bradley Cooper, who played school teacher Phil, Ed Helms, who played dentist Stu, and Zach Galifianakis, who played unemployed legend Alan, have all agreed to be in the comedy sequel.
The latest installment was rumoured to take place in Thailand, but Director Todd Phillips has played down these rumours:
"There’s a lot of rumors. There was a rumor also that it was going to Mexico or something and neither are true.”
Hangover took $467 million from a small budget of only $34 million, and also won the Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture Musical or Comedy.
In the original the three lead roles were paid $1 million dollars each, but the contracts for the latest film will earn them all $5 million.
If you loved Hangover as much as I did, and I haven't met anyone who didn't like it, then this is most definitely one to keep an eye out for next year, with filming starting in July.
However, I am praying that the sequel is not just an attempt to cash in and that it does have some substance, because a poor sequel could play down the greatness of the first film in the future.
