The original came out 20 years ago.
Marlon and Shawn Wayans have expressed their desire to make a follow-up to the comedy hit White Chicks.
The comedy duo reunited with Terry Crews earlier this week to recreate the iconic Thousand Miles singing scene from the 2004 cult-classic.
The boundary-pushing film follows two FBI agents who are forced to disguise themselves and go undercover as two spoiled and glamorous heiresses in their early 20’s in order to protect them from getting abducted by gangsters.
The characters of Tiffany and Brittany Wilson were based on Paris Hilton and her sister Nicky.
The hilarious and groundbreaking movie earned over $100 million at the box office twenty years ago, and now one-half of the brotherly force has publicly stated his wish to make a White Chicks 2.
Marlon Wayans, who is soon to embark on a US stand-up comedy tour, appeared on the talk show Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen this week where he was asked about the possibility of dressing up as a rich white girl again for a sequel.
“I hope we do a White Chicks 2,” Marlon revealed. “I think it would be a great film.”
He added that he believes “the world needs White Chicks 2“, and we couldn’t agree more.
He also opened up about what it was like to get to know Paris and Nicky Hilton, and whether or not they would appear in the next movie.
“It was really cool meeting Nicky and Paris. I’ve known them for years. We actually used to party together,” Marlon said.
“Me and my brother used to actually watch them party and we’d be like ‘oh we should do them in a movie one day’. They were kind of the inspiration behind the characters we did in White Chicks.”

According to CoveredGeekly, Shawn Wayans is also up for making a sequel providing they find the right studio, budget, and practical effects team.
Speaking to public Los Angeles radio station 935KDAY back in 2022, Shawn said it’s all down to the “studio” to provide the right “budget” and “compensation for it.”
“It’s really that simple,” he added.
