Will There Be a Vacation 2?

By Robert Palmer

Are you a fan of the 2015 comedy film, Vacation? If so, you’re likely wondering if there will be a sequel. Well, wonder no more – we’ve got the inside scoop!

What Is Vacation?

In case you haven’t seen it, Vacation follows the Griswold family as they embark on a road trip to Walley World. The father, Rusty Griswold (played by Ed Helms), is determined to recreate the same family vacation he took as a child and make it better for his own family.

Will There Be a Vacation 2?

At this time, there has been no official announcement confirming or denying the possibility of a sequel. However, there have been some hints dropped by those involved in the production of the first film.

In an interview with Collider back in 2015, directors John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein were asked about the possibility of a sequel. Goldstein responded by saying, “We had such a great time making it and we love those characters so if people want to see more adventures with them we would definitely be open to that.”

Additionally, in 2018 actor Ed Helms was asked about the possibility of reprising his role as Rusty Griswold. He told Collider, “I would love to work with those guys again and I would love to play Rusty again.”

Potential Plotlines

While there’s no confirmation on whether or not there will be a Vacation 2, that doesn’t stop us from speculating what could happen in the next installment.

One potential plotline could follow Rusty Griswold as he takes his own family on another vacation – perhaps to another amusement park or tourist attraction.

Another idea could involve bringing back some of the original cast members from National Lampoon’s Vacation series (which Vacation is a continuation of) for a family reunion vacation.

Conclusion

While there’s no confirmation on whether or not there will be a sequel to Vacation, there’s certainly interest from the filmmakers and actors involved. Only time will tell if we’ll get to see the Griswold family back on the big screen for another hilarious adventure.
