<i>One of Them Days</i> Sequel: Everything We Know

We’re about to have another One of Them Days.

The Issa Rae-produced hit comedy, starring Keke Palmer and SZA, is officially set to return for a sequel. Written by Syreeta Singleton and directed by Lawrence Lamont, the original film followed besties and roommates Dreux (Palmer) and Alyssa (SZA) over a single day in Los Angeles as they scramble to make their rent money before they get evicted. It went on to become one of the most successful original films released this year, grossing over $50 million worldwide. “It was such a scary thing because I wanted a number one movie,” Rae told the Washington Post in January. “I wanted it to be successful and simultaneously show that, box-office-wise, there was a demand for this.”

Below is everything we know about the forthcoming sequel.

Yes! According to Variety, a sequel to One of Them Days is in the works. The film is currently in early development at TriStar Pictures.

Palmer and SZA will return as best friends Dreux and Alyssa, respectively. The original creative team will also be coming back. There’s no word yet on whether the supporting cast (which includes Keyla Monterroso Mejia, Maude Apatow, Janelle James, Katt Williams, Lil Rel Howery, Joshua Neal, Aziza Scott, Patrick Cage, Dewayne Perkins, Amin Joseph, Gabrielle Dennis, and DomiNque Perry) will be returning, too.

While the plot for the sequel is still being kept under wraps, that won’t stop us from hypothesizing. One of Them Days ended with Dreux getting an offer for her dream job and Alyssa successfully putting on her first art show. (Oh, and they did end up making back their rent money. That is, before a fire burned down their apartment.) The sequel might follow them in their new lives as self-assured career women, who undoubtedly get involved in even more hijinks.

It’s currently streaming on Netflix.
