What happens when a $30 million dollar movie makes its money back in two days? Everyone piles on the low-budget, big performers. Take White Chicks, the Wayan Brothers comedy where two sibling FBI agents (played by Marlon and Shawn Wayans) go undercover as two white cruise line heiresses.
The first White Chicks was made for somewhere around $37 million dollars and though it was widely panned by critics for good reason, went on to gross $113 million worldwide. It just goes to show you that some stupid stuff can turn a profit if you don't spend that much money making it an market it right.
Both brothers are on board to write the sequel and third Wayans, Keenen Ivory, will be behind the lens for White Chicks 2. As of now, we don't know what the movie will be about...outside of the obvious: black guys dressed as sassy white chicks.
Though when the bar is set at Dance Flick for Wayans comedy, it's hard to imagine anything sinking below that laughably un-funny outing.
