Hairspray Sequel Planned; John Waters to Write Hairspray Sequel
A sequel to the hit film Hairpsray is in the works, with John Waters attached to write the Hairspray 2 treatment. But will we see repeat performances from the cast of the first Hairspray?
The buzz is that Zac Efron may reprise his role in the Hairspray sequel, but no casting details have yet been revealed.
Director-choreographer Adam Shankman, producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron and songwriters Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman are also on board to return for the Hairspray sequel.
Director Adam Shankman commented on the Hairspray sequel, saying, “I never thought of musicals as franchises, but it certainly worked with ‘High School Musical,’ and the idea of working with that cast again, and creating new material and music, is a dream come true. John (Waters) has such an original and extraordinary voice; we all can’t wait to see what he has come up with.”
