It’s been over 20 years since the release of ‘White Chicks,’ and it looks like the Wayans Brothers have finally agreed that ‘it’s time’ to give fans the long-awaited sequel. It’s been over 20 years since Shawn and Marlon Wayans starred in the cult classic movie about a pair of Black FBI agents who go undercover as two blonde, white sisters. In that time, Marlon says one of his most asked questions from fans is: “When are you doing the [White Chicks] sequel?”.
“People love that movie, and I think it’s time,” he told Good Morning America during a recent red-carpet interview. “So let’s get Scary Movie 6 done and then we’re gonna bring all the white chicks in.”. The Independent has contacted Marlon’s representative for further comment.
He later told The Hollywood Reporter: “Me and my brothers have been talking. So if things go right, we hope to do a White Chicks 2.”. Last year, the brothers delighted Scary Movie fans with the news that they were going to reboot the parody horror franchise.
Both Marlon and Shawn starred in the first two Scary Movie films, which they wrote and produced with their older brother Keenen Ivory Wayans, who also directed the films. The franchise’s third and fourth movies were later directed by David Zucker after the Wayans Brothers fell out with Harvey Weinstein and Miramax Films. They then accused Weinstein of “snatching” the franchise.
“They took the franchise from us, took it from us. And then they stole the idea for the third one. They took it from us and gave it to somebody else because we couldn’t make a deal. So, they gave it to somebody else, and they didn’t tell us. We read about it in the papers.”.
