Wayans brothers tease ‘White Chicks’ sequel if ‘Scary Movie 6’ succeeds

The Wayans discusses long term franchise plans as interest builds around returning comedy from the early 2000s era

The Wayans brothers have sparked renewed excitement among comedy fans after hinting that a sequel to White Chicks could move forward depending on the performance of their upcoming film Scary Movie 6. The comments come as the family prepares to return to one of their most successful franchises, marking a significant comeback for a major 2000s comedy series.

Marlon Wayans and Shawn Wayans both suggested that audience response will be key in determining whether White Chicks 2 becomes a reality. The original 2004 film White Chicks, which starred the brothers as FBI agents undercover in disguise, became a cult hit despite mixed critical reviews, eventually building a strong global fan base over time.

Marlon Wayans stated that the creative team is open to revisiting the characters, emphasising that audience turnout for Scary Movie 6 will help shape future decisions. Shawn Wayans reinforced this point, noting that a sequel is possible if the new instalment performs strongly at the box office. The brothers have previously collaborated on several successful comedies, including Scary Movie and Don’t Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood.

Interest in the potential sequel has also been fuelled by cast enthusiasm. Actress Anna Faris, who stars in the upcoming Scary Movie 6, has reportedly expressed interest in joining a possible White Chicks follow-up. While joking about casting logistics, the Wayans brothers indicated that budget considerations would play a role in any future decisions.

The discussion comes as the Wayans family returns to Scary Movie 6, which is scheduled for theatrical release on June 5. The film marks a reunion for the creative team, with Marlon and Shawn Wayans contributing to the script alongside Keenen Ivory Wayans. Several original franchise cast members are also set to return, reinforcing the project’s status as a major revival of the spoof comedy series.

Beyond White Chicks, Marlon Wayans has also hinted at the possibility of revisiting other past projects, signalling a broader interest in reviving earlier work if audience demand is strong. This reflects a wider industry trend of rebooting established comedy properties with built-in fan bases.

For now, the future of White Chicks 2 remains dependent on audience reaction to the upcoming release, but the Wayans brothers’ comments have already reignited speculation that one of their most recognisable films could return to screens.
