Jul 25 2008 Harold & Kumar Will Visit/Escape From Another Place

Though no miniature burger or torture destination has been named, New Line has announced that Harold and Kumar will be a trilogy:

Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg, who wrote "Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle" and "Harold & Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay" and directed the latter, will return to write and direct a third installment for Mandate Pictures.

Storyline is being kept under wraps.

Stars John Cho and Kal Penn are expected to reprise their roles as the ganja-loving duo because Mandate has options on the actors for the third installment.

I kept waiting for the part where they explained that this will be a prequel, in which younger actors do impressions of Harold and Kumar, but this seems to be legitimate. I just hope I can still see Kumar as a stoner now that I know he is, in reality, a doctor working under the medical maverick House M.D.
