White Chicks 2: Terry Crews announces sequel to 2004 comedy with Shawn and Marlon Wayans

Finally!

The ludicrous but oddly subversive 2004 comedy White Chicks is finally getting a sequel after years of speculation, according to co-star Terry Crews.

The actor, who portrayed a basketball player unknowingly in love with a black man in disguise as a white woman in the original film, claimed during an appearance on Watch What Happens with Andy Cohen that original stars Marlon and Shawn Wayans are actively preparing to return to the White Chicks universe. The 2004 hit saw the pair go undercover as dim-witted white heiresses in order to prevent a kidnapping.

Crews said: “You know what, I actually got with Shawn and he was like ‘man we doing it, we getting it going’ ... I’m staying in shape just for that movie.”

Crews also suggested a new “white girl song” for a scene to rival the original film’s memorable sequence in which a group of white characters sing along in their car to Vanessa Carlton’s "A Thousand Miles".

“I think the modern day equivalent to that might be Carly Rae Jepsen’s ‘Call Me Maybe’,” he said. “But I would definitely do the whitest white girl song you would ever see. But white girls are singing gangsta right now, you know what I mean? So it might be a little different, it might have a little rap thing in there. How ever we would do it, it’d be great.”

Several of the film’s actual white chicks recently reunited for Busy Philipps’s short-lived talk show. Philipps, who appeared in the film herself, recreated the film’s memorable dance-off sequence with original stars Brittany Daniel, Jaime King and Jessica Cauffiel. There is currently no word on whether they would return for the sequel.
