Kenan Thompson says 'Good Burger 2' with Kel Mitchell is 'gonna happen soon'
Fans of "Good Burger" may be able to order up tickets to see a sequel to the iconic 1997 film in the near future.
"We're getting really close on 'Good Burger 2,'" Kenan Thompson told "Entertainment Tonight." "It's gonna happen, and I think it's gonna happen soon. We're gonna figure out when the pocket of time will be to shoot it, but it's gonna happen."
The "Saturday Night Live" star continued, "It's closer than it's ever been. So, I don't think anything is gonna derail it."
Thompson, 44, said the film's script is complete and he and Mitchell, 44, have already had a reading of it and said it was "so funny" and "it's on and crackin'."
"Kel has not missed a step," he said of his longtime collaborator and friend. "It's like old slippers, and that character is just ripe for jokes. We read like, over 100 pages and laughed the whole time. It was so much fun."
