Girls Trip 2 Release Date What is a nice movie to see on a girls’ night out? Of course, a girls’ trip! The 2017 film depicts four female pals known as the Flossy Posse: Sasha (Queen Latifah), Ryan (Regina Hall), Lisa (Jada Pinkett Smith), and Dina (Tiffany Haddish).
The fictional friends have known each other since childhood, but they have grown apart as they have gotten older. They rejoin, though, to attend the annual Essence Festival in New Orleans, and let’s just say their relationship is stronger than ever after a few hilarious and inebriated hijinks. Consider the film to be an all-female version of The Hangover.
However, as we’re sure you’re aware, The Hangover received a sequel and a third installment. So, will there be a sequel to Girls Trip? So far, here’s what we know.
Will There Be A Sequel To ‘Girls Trip’?
Yes. Girls Trip 2 is taking place! Will Packer, the producer of Girls Trip, shared the wonderful news on Good Morning America on January 21, 2022. “Can’t we all benefit from a post-pandemic vacation, my friend?” he asked anchor Michael Strahan during the broadcast. “I think the moment is truly right, and this is something I will tell you and break right now at GMA: the Girls Trip 2 sequel is underway,” Will added.
He also revealed that “the ladies are in” and that he has already spoken with the film’s director. While details are still being worked out, Will has stated that the next sequel will make light of current events because it will be the Flossy Posse’s first journey together post-pandemic. Which, in our opinion, already suggests that it will be wilder than the original.

In the midst of the epidemic, Tiffany Haddish told HuffPost in March 2020 (the early aughts of COVID-19) that she and her Girls Trip co-stars caught up on Zoom. What began as a mini-reunion rapidly became a sequel brainstorming session.
This was not surprising given that Queen Latifah told People in May 2019 that the Gals Trip girls were open to a sequel. “Everybody’s in, everybody’s down for No. 2… now we’re just waiting for a script,” she remarked, hinting at some potential sequel locations. “I’ve been tossing Rio [de Janeiro] since the beginning… South Africa is certainly on board as well “She disclosed.
Girls Trip, which celebrates its fifth anniversary this summer, was written by Kenya Barris and Tracy Oliver, who co-created the story with Erica Rivinoja. Surprisingly, it was based on Tracy and Erica’s real-life experiences. The film has a 92 percent approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes and has won several honors since its premiere, including two Black Reel Awards, two NAACP Image Awards, and an MTV Movie & TV Award.
When Will ‘Girls Trip 2’ Be Released?
The release date of Girls Trip 2 is unclear. However, given that it was announced in early 2022, it’s likely that it won’t be available until later this year or in 2023.
