Paul Giamatti will be joining director Todd Phillips in Thailand for the follow-up to comedy supersmash The Hangover .
Details on the eagerly-anticipated comedy sequel are extremely sparse, but Deadline have announced that Giamatti has now signed on.
He will be teaming up with original stars Zach Galifianakis, Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Justin Bartha, while newbies Liam Neeson and Juliette Lewis are also on board. Ken Jeong's terrifying Mr Chow is also set to return.
Paul Giamatti will next be seen in Barney's Version , and he'll also be hamming it up to the max as King John in medieval actioner Ironclad . Giamatti has long been a TF favourite. So good in American Splendor , Sideways and HBO's John Adams , it'll be exciting to see what he brings to this sequel.
Expect plot details to trickle through extremely slowly though, as Warner Bros will likely be keeping this one tightly under wraps.
