Phillips Reveals Old School Sequel Bits

Skewed and Reviewed talked to School for Scoundrels co-writer/director/producer Todd Phillips about his Old School sequel in development at DreamWorks Pictures.
Phillips said that the title for the film will be Old School Dos. He is currently working on the script and will show it to the actors (Luke Wilson, Vince Vaughn and Will Ferrell), who aren't signed yet, upon completion.
Phillips revealed that the sequel will shed more light on Ferrell's character and why his wife was so concerned that his alter ego, Frank the Tank, never see the light of day again.
The 2003 comedy earned $74 million domestically.
Well if all goes to plan, they will at least try and match the first one. I mean, every university and high school-er knows Old School pretty much by heart. You don't really wanna disappoint such a large demographic that probably bought 95% of the tickets to the first one....anyway, that was my rant.

Will Ferrell on Elf 2 and Old School Dos

Will Ferrell tells Moviehole that Elf 2 won't be happening with him starring and that Old School Dos is a possibility:
In an interview with Moviehole today, Will Ferrell denounced plans for an "Elf 2" stating that although it was in the works - New Line had tried to talk him into doing a sequel to the family comedy hit - he rejected the idea.
"Elf 2 got killed," says Ferrell. "I killed Elf 2."
New Line's Toby Emmerich said they would only ever do the sequel – which New Line exec VP of production Kent Alterman was rumoured to be directing – if it were with Will. Since its not, it isn't happening.
As for "Old School 2," that's still a possibility. "Old School 2 is apparently being written," he says.
Todd Phillips recently said that he is working on the Old School Dos script.
