Like You're Surprised: "Madagascar 2" is Coming
by Scott Weinberg | August 09, 2006
Discuss Article
DreamWorks' "Madagascar" didn't just make $195 million in domestic box office tallies; the flick earned over $528 million worldwide! So please don't act stunned or surprised when you learn that "Madagascar 2" is scheduled to hit the screens in November of 2008.

From IGN FilmForce & The Hollywood Reporter: "The "Madagascar" sequel has been scheduled for a Nov. 7, 2008 opening. Paramount Pictures will distribute the picture, which will be produced by DreamWorks Animation. (Paramount recently bought DreamWorks.) THR reveals that Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, Jada Pinkett-Smith and David Schwimmer "are set to reprise their roles as the main characters of the animated franchise."

(I bet "Shrek Goes to Madagascar" hits screens by 2011.)

I want it to just be about the Penguins. They were the only original characters in the film.

Ick. I found Madagascar to be cute but I don't see a sequel as wanted here.

Well, at least disney will be able to rip them off again by creating "The Wild 2."

Disney wasn't ripping DreamWorks off - it was the other way around. The Wild was in production for nine years; Madagascar was in production for four. I'm not saying that either one is better than the other, just correcting a common mistake.
