Shawn and Marlon Wayans said a sequel to White Chicks could be produced if Scary Movie 6 is a box-office success [1, 2, 3].
The potential revival of the comedy franchise depends on the current appetite for the brothers' brand of humor. A successful performance by the upcoming film would provide the financial justification needed for studios to green-light a follow-up to the 2004 hit [2, 3].
Speaking with Entertainment Tonight, the brothers said they are willing to return to the roles [1]. "We're game," they said [2].
Marlon Wayans tied the two projects together in a separate interview. "If Scary Movie 6 does well, White Chicks 2 can happen," Wayans said [2]. He added, "We'll be back real hard" [2].
Scary Movie 6 is currently slated to premiere on June 12, 2026 [2]. The production of the film has seen conflicting reports regarding Marlon Wayans' specific role. Some reports indicate he was not part of the filmmaking effort, while other sources state he co-wrote and stars in the movie [2, 4].
The brothers are using the upcoming release to gauge audience interest and viability [2, 3]. Because the original White Chicks developed a significant cult following over two decades, the brothers believe there is a path forward if the current market responds positively to their newest project [2].
“"If Scary Movie 6 does well, White Chicks 2 can happen."”
This strategy reflects a cautious approach to franchise revival, using a new release as a litmus test for the commercial viability of legacy IPs. By tying the sequel to the performance of Scary Movie 6, the Wayans brothers are shifting the risk to the studio, ensuring there is proven demand before committing to a high-budget production of White Chicks 2.
