A Little More "Hairspray"

Can't get too much of a good thing? There seems to be an emerging trend of musical sequels. High School Musical led the way, of course, with High School Musical 4 now in the works.

Next is Hairspray 2, a movie musical sequel to the 2007 movie Hairspray, which was adapted from the Broadway musical Hairspray, which was adapted from the original 1988 movie Hairspray.

Got it?

Writer-director John Waters, director-choreographer Adam Shankman, producers Neil Meron and Craig Zadan, and songwriters Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman are all on board for the sequel.
