The Best Man is getting remarried, but it’s been a long trip back to the altar. Deadline reports that Malcolm D. Lee has signed a deal to reunite the cast of his 1999 romantic comedy for a sequel, which will star Taye Diggs, Nia Long, and Terrence Howard (assuming that Don Cheadle doesn’t replace him, of course). This is the second time in the past year that Universal has dusted off one of its 1999 comedies and sequelized it belatedly, as the studio also has a new iteration of American Pie on tap with next year’s American Reunion. Assuming the trend holds, are you ready for The Story of Us 2? Mystery Men Reassembled? Or, fingers crossed, Return to Notting Hill 3-D? [Deadline]
