Earlier this month, it was revealed that Sacha Baron Cohen had filmed a sequel to Borat, completely in secret.
Now the title of the movie appears to have leaked: Borat: Gift of Pornographic Monkey to Vice Premiere Mikhael Pence to Make Benefit Recently Diminished Nation of Kazakhstan.
We’re pretty sure ‘Vice Premiere Mikhael Pence’ is a reference to Donald Trump’s Vice President Mike Pence.
If you remember, the title to the original film was Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan.
Sequels always need to bigger and better than the original, and Borat 2 is defintely doing that by having six more words in the title than the first one.
The Film Stage reports that the title was leaked in a now-deleted Writer’s Guild of America filing.
The WGA filing confirmed the script is by Sacha Baron Cohen, Anthony Hines, Dan Swimer, Peter Baynham, Erica Rivinoja, Dan Mazer, Jena Friedman, and Lee Kern with story by Sacha Baron Cohen, Anthony Hines, Dan Swimer, and Nina Pedrad.
Collider’s original reveal of the sequel said while full plot details are still scarce, “Borat is no longer the little-known Kazakh TV personality he played in the original 2006 movie. The public knows who he is now, so he has to go ‘undercover’ to interview people.”
Cohen has been spotted out and about in Borat costume, but there’s also been signs of some undercover work over the past few months.
At the end of June, Cohen made headlines for crashing a far-right rally in Washington and convincing the crowd to join him singing a racist song.
There was also clip of Borat speeding down a street in Los Angeles.
The original film grossed over $260 million worldwide and won Cohen a Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Motion Picture Comedy or Musical. It also received an Oscar nomination for Best Adapted Screenplay at the 79th Academy Awards.
