New Line Cinema is working on Hairspray 2, a sequel to the popular 2007 film based on the original film by John Waters and the Broadway musical, according to Variety.
Waters has been asked to write a treatment, while the film's director-choreographer, Adam Shankman, producers Neil Meron and Craig Zadan, and composer-lyricists Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman are reportedly aboard.
