CANNONBALL!!!!! Anchorman 2!! Y E S !

(Canoe.ca)Is there a Will Ferrell film movie fans have wanted a sequel to more than
2004's ‘Anchorman’? Probably not.

So after much back-and-forth (the film has been in development hell since 2008), Ferrell, er, Burgundy appeared on ‘Conan’ sporting his ’70s-era duds to announce that the San Diego legend will be back.




After storming the stage for an extended flute solo, Cali’s classiest newsman made this announcement: “As of 0900 hours Mountain Time, Paramount Pictures and myself, Ronald Joseph Aaron Burgundy, have come to terms on a sequel to ‘Anchorman.’ It is official, there will be a sequel to ‘Anchorman.’”

Anchorman wasn’t Ferrell’s most lucrative film, but the character introduced a slew of catchphrases into popular culture including “stay classy” and my personal favourite, “cannonball!”

There was no word on whether co-stars Steve Carell, Paul Rudd and Christina Applegate will appear.

Now that Burgandy’s back, is there another Will Ferrell character you’d like to see the star reprise? Personally, I’d love to see Ricky Bobby again.

Ferrell’s most recent film, the Spanish-language comedy ‘Casa De Mi Padre’, is in theatres now.
