Good Burger 2 2023

Good Burger 2 is a 2023 American comedy film directed by Phil Traill, written by the writing team of Kevin Kopelow and Heath Seifert, and produced by and starring Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell. It serves as a sequel to Good Burger (1997), which was based on a comedy sketch featured on the Nickelodeon series All That. The story follows Dexter Reed reuniting with Ed at his old workplace Good Burger, where the pair unveils a secret involving a successor to their old rival restaurant. Talks of a sequel for Good Burger occurred in 2018 through the interest of both Thompson and Mitchell, three years after the pair were reunited in a sketch on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in 2015. The sequel was officially announced in March 2023. Kopelow and Seifert, the co-creators of the original sketch and co-writers of the first film, were hired to write the screenplay, and Traill was confirmed to be directing. Thompson and Mitchell were also confirmed to be returning as Dexter Reed and Ed, respectively. The film was produced by Nickelodeon Movies and Artists for Artists, and was filmed from May to June of that same year, mirroring the same production window as the original.
