Anchorman 2 Close To Happening?

Anchorman 2 talk is nothing new, most of the cast involved in the first one have all been open about their desire to do a second. So far it hasn’t amounted to much. Just maybe though, that’s changing.

Moviehole caught Will Ferrell on Australian radio where he revealed that everyone “is meeting next week” to discuss the sequel. As for who’s involved in the meeting and whether this means anything more than Paul Rudd going over to Will Ferrell’s house to smoke a bong and reminisce about old times is anyone’s guess. But at least it’s movement… sort of… isn’t it? Maybe this thing’s really coming together, or maybe it’ll end up being killed with a trident.

You have to wonder how much harder it’s going to be this time to get the primary cast back. After all, Paul Rudd and Steve Carell were virtual nobodies when they made the first movie. Even Will Ferrell wasn’t exactly Will Ferrell yet. Since then, the careers of all three of skyrocketed. Getting all of them back in their polyester suits for a sequel will be expensive and let’s face it, there’s no movie without Brick Tamland. We all love lamp.
