Variety is carrying some news I have to believe everyone will be happy to hear as DreamWorks has green lit Old School 2 and hired Todd Phillips and Scot Armstrong to pen the script for Phillips to direct. Phillips directed the original Old School and has since directed Starsky & Hutch and is attached to a couple of other features.
The original Old School starred Will Ferrell, Vince Vaughn and Luke Wilson and told the story of a trio of thirtysomething buddies who try to recapture the outrageous, irrepressible fun of their college years by starting their own off-campus fraternity.
There was no word on what the sequel will be about and no cast has been announced, but I think it is safe to say that without Ferrell or Vaughn this pic is going to need some serious names to get audiences excited.
