Ed And Dexter Welcome You Back To Good Burger In Paramount+'s 'Good Burger 2' Teaser
The film is expected to be released on the service around Thanksgiving
The whole Good Burger 2 cast is welcoming you back to Good Burger, home of the Good Burger in the film's first teaser. released Monday by Paramount+, just as a screening of the first film began in Bryant Park for Paramount+ Movie Nights.
The sequel to Nickelodeon's 1997 film, the latter being the second ever Nickelodeon Movie, Good Burger 2 reunites classic combo Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell for the umpteenth time, as now Dexter Reed is down on his luck after another one of his inventions fails. Ed helps him by bringing him back to Good Burger, where Ed now has a long-changed group of co-workers. While there, Dex devises a plan to get back on his feet that puts the fate of Good Burger at risk once again.
The 35-second teaser sees Ed pull up in the restaurant's car to Dexter on a grocery run and hit him in a manner that lands him in the passenger seat. Ed announces that this is the start of new adventures. The pair walk in in-uniform with swagger. In a lunch meeting with MegaCorp's lawyer Cecil McNevin, played by Lil Rel Howery, Ed is offered water and inspects it in his own Ed way to confirm it's water as Dexter feels the shame. Guess that will be eight glugs.
The film was announced back in March, while the film's cast as known so far aside from Thompson and Mitchell was announced in June. With Howery are Jillian Bell as Katt Boswell the Megacorp CEO, Alex R. Hibbert as Ed2, Ed's mini-me son and the restaurant's newest trainee Kamaia Fairburn as the cool and confident Mia, who works there to support her mother, Fabrizio Guido as Mr. Jensen, who struggles to keep the employees in line, and twins Elizabeth and Emily Hinkler as cooks Cindy and Mindy. Anabel Graetz's Ruth is the most senior staff member. Even from the shot that serves as the article’s head image you can make out who's who rather easily.
Good Burger 2 will also feature returns from the original film such as Josh Server as ex-Good Burger co-worker Fizz, and Carmen Electra as Roxanne, who was a Mondo Burger plant at that time. Lori Beth Denberg is also returning for this film, however it's unknown if she's bringing back Connie Muldoon, the character that originated on All That and appeared as her small role in the film, or if she’s playing a new character, whether either role is expanded or not.
It will be directed by Phil Traill and written and executive produced by the writers of the original film, Kevin Kopelow & Heath Seifert, who were also major writers on All That, with additional writing from James III, who wrote with them on season 11. The director of the first film, Brian Robbins, was a producer of All That for its first ten seasons, and is now the current President and Chief Executive Officer of Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon.
