'Hangover 3' New Images And Plot Look And Sound Funny

The highly anticipated Hangover 3 has rung a few bells today. Not only did director Todd Philips release a few official photos of the screen but he also spilled the beans about the film’s plot.

The director said this about the movie last year, “It’s certainly not in the same template that you’ve seen for these movies. The third would be very much a finale and an ending. The most I could say about it…is that it is not following that template but very much a new idea.” Now, Phillips has let the cat out the bag, giving a short synopsis about Hangover 3. “The Hangover Part 3 is Alan’s story,” Phillips told Entertainment Weekly about Zach Galifianakis’ character. “He’s going through a crisis after the death of his father, [and] the Wolfpack is all he has.”

Phillips also mentions Ken Jeong’s charater Mr. Chow, and said, “He’s darker than ever.” Adding to that, the director said the film is “a fitting end to this three-part opera of mayhem and bad decisions.”

Galifianakis, Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, Justin Bartha, and Ken Jeong will star in Hangover 3, while John Goodman, Heather Graham, Jeffrey Tambor, Mike Epps and Melissa McCarthy will co-star. “The Hangover 3” is slated to hit theaters May 24, 2013.

EW got there hands on two first-look photos of the cast, which are on the next page. Enjoy!

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
