#Repost @meet_the_blacks ć»ć»ć» The movie is a sequel to the 2016 hit 'Meet the Blacks.' Comedy superstars Mike Epps and Katt Williams are teaming up to topline the urban comedy The House Next Door, a sequel to the 2016 indie horror comedy Meet the Blacks. Deon Taylor @dtfilmtohoop , who directed Blacks, is directing and producing with partners @roxanneavent and @robertfredericksmith. Epps is also producing via his Naptown Productions shingle. Epps starred in Blacks and is reprising his role as Carl Black, who, in the original film, moved his family from Chicago to Beverly Hills only to find out it was the cityās annual 12-hour purge, a timeframe where all crime is legal. In the new movie, which begins shooting next week in Atlanta, Black is now an over-stressed but best-selling author who moves his family to his childhood home so he can find peace to write his new book. But when an extravagant #pimp (Williams) moves into the neighborhood, Black becomes convinced that the man is actually a vampire bent on stealing his family. Original cast members returning for the sequel include @BreshaWebb, @Zulay_Henao, social media star Andrew Bachelor (aka @KingBach), and comedians @LilDuval, @MichaelBlackson and @TyrinTurner. Eppsā Naptown producing partner Niles Kirchner is executive producing, as is Williams. The pairing of Epps and Williams marks a reunion for the two comedians who last starred together in New Lineās 2002 Friday After Next. Epps recently wrapped The Trap, a comedy which he wrote and stars in with Queen Latifah and Tip Harris. He is also one of the producers on the recently wrapped film. He is repped by CAA, Primary Wave Entertainment and Morris Yorn.
