The Hangover Part II 2011

The Hangover Part II is a 2011 American comedy film and sequel to the 2009 film The Hangover, and the second installment in The Hangover trilogy. The film was directed by Todd Phillips, who co-wrote the script with Craig Mazin and Scot Armstrong, and stars Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, Zach Galifianakis, Ken Jeong, Jeffrey Tambor, Justin Bartha, and Paul Giamatti. It tells the story of Phil, Stu, Alan, and Doug, as they travel to Thailand. After the bachelor party in Las Vegas, Stu takes no chances and opts for a safe, subdued pre-wedding brunch. Things do not go as planned, resulting in another bad hangover with no memories of the previous night. Development began in April 2009, two months before The Hangover was released. The principal actors were cast in March 2010 to reprise their roles from the first film. Production began in October 2010, in Ontario, California, before moving on location in Thailand. Produced by Legendary Pictures and Green Hat Films, the film was distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures. It premiered at the TCL Chinese Theatre on May 19, 2011 and was released theatrically on May 26, 2011.
