Ron Burgundy Enters the 1980s in “Anchorman 2” Trailer

In the new trailer for Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues, the sequel to 2004’s Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, we see that the famous San Diego news team led by Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell) goes to New York City in the era of 24-hour news. The change in setting offers some promise that the new film will come up with some new laughs.

The trailer reveals that key characters Brian Fantana (Paul Rudd), Champ Kind (David Koechner) and Brick Tamland (Steve Carell) return to the screen with Burgundy. Slate, which critiques the trailer, notes that reported cameos in the film include Kanye West, Tina Fey, Harrison Ford, Will Smith, and Nicole Kidman. Such an esteemed group ensures the movie will stay classy.

    Ron Burgundy Returns

    Last night on Conan, Ron Burgundy (i.e., Will Ferrell) played a little jazz flute and announced there will be a sequel to Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004).

    Although one always wonders whether a sequel is a good idea, Anchorman is a fun movie, so I am looking forward to the sequel. I hope it stays classy.
