After more than a decade, Harold and Kumar are officially making a comeback. Yup, <em data-start=\"172\" data-end=\"190\">Harold & Kumar 4<\/em> is in the works, and fans of the chaotic,<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"251\" data-end=\"531\">Guess what? One of the most iconic stoner duos of all time, Harold and Kumar, are making a comeback after more than a decade! Yep, <em data-start=\"388\" data-end=\"406\">Harold & Kumar 4<\/em> is officially in the works, and fans who grew up laughing at their ridiculous adventures are freaking out (in the best way).<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"533\" data-end=\"895\">It\u2019s been <em data-start=\"543\" data-end=\"552\">forever<\/em> since the last movie, <em data-start=\"575\" data-end=\"611\">A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas<\/em>, came out in 2011. That one ended with them finally fixing their messy lives, settling things with their girlfriends, and, of course, lighting one up together, just like old times. Most people assumed that was the end. But nope, these guys have one more round of chaos to unleash.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"897\" data-end=\"1239\">And yes, the original stars John Cho (Harold) and Kal Penn (Kumar) are expected to come back to play their iconic roles again, though nothing is officially signed yet. But what\u2019s super exciting is that the original writers, Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg, are back on board too, so the movie\u2019s definitely in the right hands.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1241\" data-end=\"1290\">Here\u2019s what the writers said about the new movie:<\/p>\n<blockquote data-start=\"1292\" data-end=\"1524\">\n<p data-start=\"1294\" data-end=\"1524\">\u201cWe\u2019re fired up to bring Harold and Kumar back in a return to the unapologetically R-rated, smoke-filled chaos that started it all. It\u2019s high time they puff and pass their wisdom onto a new generation. Just don\u2019t tell their kids.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"1526\" data-end=\"1700\">Yup. It sounds like they\u2019re ready to go all-in with the same kind of wild humour, insane situations, and weed-fueled madness that made the first films so hilarious and iconic.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1702\" data-end=\"2066\">The movie is being produced by Mandate Pictures under Lionsgate, and while the full cast isn\u2019t confirmed yet, fans are <em data-start=\"1829\" data-end=\"1837\">really<\/em> hoping that Neil Patrick Harris comes back, too. His crazy, over-the-top appearances in the earlier movies were unforgettable (and honestly, the films wouldn\u2019t feel complete without him showing up to cause even more trouble).<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"2068\" data-end=\"2114\"><strong>So, what can we expect from <em data-start=\"2095\" data-end=\"2113\">Harold & Kumar 4<\/em>?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"2116\" data-end=\"2491\">No one knows the exact storyline yet, but what\u2019s clear is that Harold and Kumar are older now. Maybe they\u2019re parents. Maybe they\u2019re working boring jobs. Maybe they still haven\u2019t figured things out. Either way, it\u2019s going to be <em data-start=\"2343\" data-end=\"2355\">really fun<\/em> to see how much they\u2019ve changed and how much they\u2019ve stayed the same. One thing\u2019s for sure: their lives will never be chill for long.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2493\" data-end=\"2650\">Honestly, with everything going on in the world, a new Harold & Kumar movie might be exactly the kind of loud, ridiculous, feel-good chaos we need right now.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Surprise!
