Eleven actors join the cast of sequel
David Krumholtz, Neil Patrick Harris, Rob Corddry, Christopher Meloni, Ed Helms, Eddie Kaye Thomas, Paula Garces, Jack Conley, Roger Bart, Danneel Harris and Eric Winter have joined the cast of New Line’s “Harold and Kumar 2”.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, The sequel is set in motion on the same morning that Harold and Kumar finally satisfy their munchies at White Castle and the object of Harold’s affection, Maria (Garces), sets off for Amsterdam. The pair decide to pursue her so Harold can proclaim his love. But when an overzealous passenger mistakes Kumar for a terrorist, the plane is diverted and the boys are off on a new escapade of mistaken identity. From Guantanamo Bay through the Deep South, Harold and Kumar encounter myriad wackos, jerks and whores as they are pursued by the Department of Homeland Security all the way into Bush Country.
Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg, who wrote the original “Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle,” will direct the follow-up from their original script.
No word on whether Brandon Routh, Penn’s “Superman Returns” co-star, has been coaxed into that oft-rumoured cameo he apparently agreed to earlier.
