Cast set for A Few Best Men sequel

Kevin Bishop, Kris Marshall and Xavier Samuel will reprise their roles in the sequel to Stephan Elliott's 2011 hit comedy A Few Best Men.

Set to shoot next January in Western Australia, A Few Less Men will mark the directing debut of  Dean Craig, who scripted  Death At A Funeral and A Few Best Men.

Craig wrote the sequel, which is said to involve three men in ill-fitting wedding tuxedos, a coffin, travel plans gone inexplicably awry, and more wholly inappropriate behavior.

The script development was funded by Arclight Films, which is launching sales at the Cannes Film Market, and ScreenWest. 

Producers Laurence Malkin, Share Stallings and Gary Hamilton, the team behind the original, have partnered with producer Tania Chambers on the sequel.

It's the second collaboration in WA between Malkin, Stallings and Chambers following Kill Me Three Times, the Kriv Stenders-directed darkly comedic thriller starring Simon Pegg, Sullivan Stapleton, Alice Braga, Teresa Palmer, Callan Mulvey, Luke Hemsworth, and Bryan Brown.
