Parmaount on Wednesday released the official trailer for Anchorman 2, which has Ron Burgundy and the gang adjusting to life in the 24-hour news cycle that started in the 1980s. There are race jokes, hair jokes and a pretty funny glimpse of Kristen Wiig’s character (hint: she probably loves lamp, too), which should please both fans of the original and those hoping things would be a little different this time around (unlike, you know, The Hangover).

Anchorman 2 opens December 20. Watch the trailer, above.

Drake rocked a fro, some sideburns and kept it classy on Saturday as the rapper got to work on the New York set of Anchorman: The Legend Continues.

The 26-year-old rapper, who has a cameo in the new film, was joined by Will Ferrell and Christina Applegate, who put on their legendary Ron Burgundy and Veronica Corningstone faces.

On the same day, Paramount unleashed a teaser trailer for the film, once again directed by Adam McKay.

Anchorman: The Legend Continues opens in theaters Dec. 20.

Paramount has unveiled the newest trailer for Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues.

Since the start of production, director Adam McKay and producer Judd Apatow have remained mum on the movie’s plot. So no, the new teaser does not have any clips from the film.

For now, fans can enjoy the precious 60-plus seconds of Ron Burgundy and company being compared to the “great ones” (Jesus, Jay-Z) and how they always return with perfect hair.

Anchorman 2, starring Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd, Steve Carrell, David Koechner, opens nationwide Dec. 20.

You haven’t changed a bit either, Burgundy.

You stay classy, San Diego. I’m Kanye West?

That’s right — the rumors proved true. The rapper is the latest star to hop on the ever-more crowded cameo bandwagon for Anchorman: The Legend Continues.

The much-anticipated sequel, which will reunite original Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd, Steve Carell, Christina Applegate and David Koechner, has already thrown Amy Poehler, Tina Fey, Sacha Baron Cohen and Jim Carrey in a fight sequence it’s been filming in Atlanta’s Woodruff Park.

Now it looks like West is throwing down, too, in a brawl that brings to mind the star-studded famous fray from the original film. While the studio is staying mum on his role, new shots from set show West — sporting a noteworthy fro — taking down Carrell’s character, Channel 4 News Team weatherman Brick Tamland, with a hockey stick of all things.

While some seem to have fallen victim in the scuffle, don’t fear — for Ron Burgundy can been seen standing tall, above the defeated. “Don’t act like you’re not impressed.”

Another day, another set of famous faces spotted on the Anchorman: The Legend Continues set. This time it’s Kirsten Dunst and Jim Carrey.

The film, which will reunite original Anchorman stars Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd, Steve Carell, Christina Applegate and David Koechner, has been filming a fight scene all week in Atlanta’s Woodruff Park. A nod to the famous fight scene in the first movie, this fight will apparently feature cameos from every single actor in Hollywood. Already this week Amy Poehler, Tina Fey, Sacha Baron Cohen and Kanye West have been spotted on set — all dressed as news anchors. It appears that Carrey will also appear as a newscaster, while Dunst looks to be playing an angel who appears on a rooftop nearby.

Yesterday’s shoot was a mini-reunion for Dunst and Carrey, who co-starred in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind together.

Also set to star in the highly anticipated sequel are John C. Reilly, Nicole Kidman, James Marsden, Kristen Wiig, Harrison Ford, Will Smith and Liam Neeson. The sheer mass of cameos in Anchorman 2 make it like Hollywood’s version of a high school reunion, reuniting cast members from Mean Girls, Walk Hard, Saturday Night Live, 30 Rock and K-19: The Widowmaker.

Last September, Koechner told Celebuzz exclusively that the movie’s premise centers around the advent of the 24-hour cable news network. The film is expected to hit theaters this December.

Things are getting intense on the set of Anchorman: The Legend Continues.

Just days after Will Ferrell was spotted duking it out with a mechanical shark, cast newcomers Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are seen beating Sacha Baron Cohen to a pulp while filming the sequel to the 2004 comedy.

Clad in a tweed skirt suits, the Saturday Night Live alums wrestle The Dictator actor to the ground before bashing him with several blunt objects.

The movie, which is slated to hit theaters this December, will see the return of the original cast — Ferrell, Paul Rudd, Steve Carell, Christina Applegate and David Koechner – and also fresh faces such as Harrison Ford and Nicole Kidman.

“What I’ve been told is that the movie will be set around the advent of the 24 hour news channel,” Koechner, who will reprise his role of Champ Kind, told Celebuzz of the sequel’s premise.

With a fight sequence like this, there’s no doubt the legend of Ron Burgundy still lives on.

However, the whereabouts of Brick’s hand grenade are still unknown.

Mark your calendars, Channel 4 fans — Ron Burgundy and the gang are returning to the big screen next December.

Director Adam McKay officially let the cat out of the bag early Thursday morning, making the big announcement on Twitter.

“It’s official. Anchorman 2 has a release date: December 20, 2013. Very excited,” he wrote of the much anticipated sequel.

Judd Apatow, who will serve as producer once again, also chimed in with his excitement.

“One year from tomorrow Anchorman 2 will be released in theaters. It is kind of a big deal,” he wrote.

Officially titled Anchorman: The Legend Continues, the follow up to the 2004 hit comedy will see the return of Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd, Christina Applegate, Steve Carrell and Chris Parnell.

In September, Celebuzz spoke to Champ Kind himself, David Koechner, about the premise of the sequel, which has remained top secret since news of Anchorman 2 broke.

“What I’ve been told is that the movie will be set around the advent of the 24 hour news channel,” he said.

“The director’s given me a couple of jokes that Champ is going to be purveying and some situations that he’s going to be in.”

Anchorman: The Legend Continues will begin production in March 2013.

Excited about this Anchorman 2 news? Sound off below!

David Koechner is going to have a very busy year.

On top of prepping for Anchorman 2 alongside Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd and the Channel 4 gang, Koechner will have his hands full with fantasy football. This season, the diehard Kansas City Chiefs fan is serving as the new spokesperson for Bud Light’s Fantasy Football League.

Koecher, 50, chatted with Celebuzz about all things NFL: the New York Jets’ quarterback roster, the newest member of the Denver Broncos — and perhaps most importantly – Champ Kind’s future in Anchorman 2, the sequel to the 2004 cult comedy Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy.

“What I’ve been told is that the movie will be set around the advent of the 24 hour news channel,” Koecher revealed, adding that filming is slated for Feb. 2013.

“The director’s given me a couple of jokes that Champ is going to be purveying and some situations that he’s going to be in.”

Koechner was careful not to spill the beans on the sequel’s plans, including the possible return of Vince Vaughn, who has hinted that he could reprise his role as Wes Mantooth.

“The internet is a wonderful gossip rag. Who knows what’s going to happen?” Koechner said.

When Celebuzz asked Koechner to weigh in on the soap opera of Peyton Manning, who just began his five-year contract with the Broncos, the comedian held nothing back.

“I just hope the best for his health, to be honest, that’s all. I just want the guy to make it through. I don’t want him to win. I’m a Chiefs fan… sorry, I don’t want him to win. No,” Koechner says.

“It’s going to be a beautiful side soap opera, which is going to be a lot of fun to watch develop week to week. That’s what I love about the NFL,” Koechner said of the dueling Jets QBs Tim Tebow and Mark Sanchez.

“It’s tough when one player gets, you know, all the blame — or all the credit.”
