The full trailer for Borat 2 is here, and it does not disappoint at all.
Highlights include Borat trying to kill COVID with a frying pan and magnifying glass, asking if Harry Potter is a sex criminal and wearing a face mask as a mankini.
It looks like Sacha Baron Cohen will be going undercover as some other characters as well – not least Donald Trump, as we see him crashing a speech by Vice President Mike Pence while dressed as the President.
We also get introduced to Borat’s daughter, and it is all set to a unique cover of Eminem’s ‘Without Me’.
Amazon has picked up the film for worldwide distribution for the film, and it will be available on Amazon Prime Video on October 23rd.

The full title of the sequel will be Borat Subsequent Moviefilm: Delivery Of Prodigious Bribe To American Regime For Make Benefit Once Glorious Nation Of Kazakhstan.
The film was made in secret earlier this year, with details only slowly starting to emerge.
According to Collider, the film finds Borat “thinking he’s a big movie star after the success of the original 2006 film made him famous, so he’s trying to hide from the public by pretending to be someone else, and starts meeting and interviewing people incognito.”
Deadline also reports that Sacha Baron Cohen had to wear a bulletproof vest for two days of shooting, as his undercover filming put him in genuine danger.
Several videos have also been captured of what looks like Cohen filming in character, including him singing a COVID song at a far-right event, and driving down an LA street.
