Will Forte has confirmed that MacGruber 2 is in fact in the works.

Forte initially claimed that a follow-up to MacGruber was in the works in April, but quickly backtracked on those comments.

he former Saturday Night Live star has offered a definitive update to Rolling Stone, revealing that he will soon begin work on the sequel.

"June 10th my writing partners John Solomon, Jorma Taccone and I are locking ourselves in a room and writing it," Forte revealed.

He went on to say: "We were happy with how the original came out. I guess you wouldn't call it a [box office] success but people got to see it, sometimes you just have to be happy with that."

The actor also indicated that negotiations have begun for Kristen Wiig and Ryan Phillippe to appear in the MacGruber sequel.

Forte said of producing MacGruber 2: "We'll start it on our own, but it'd be great to have a budget again."

The original MacGruber film was a financial disappointment upon release in May 2010, but has since gained a cult following.
