Borat sequel has reportedly already been shot and screened in secret

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

It's been almost fifteen years since the release of BORAT: CULTURAL LEARNINGS OF AMERICA FOR MAKE BENEFIT GLORIOUS NATION OF KAZAKHSTAN, which found Sacha Baron Cohen playing Kazakh journalist Borat Sagdiyev. The film was an enormous success, and although Cohen has reprised the role on several occasions, it seemed as though a proper sequel wasn't in the cards…until now.

According to Collider, not only will a sequel to BORAT happen, but it's apparently already been shot and has even been screened in secret for select industry types. The man could even teach J.J. Abrams a thing or two about secrecy. What will the sequel be about? Well, here's what Collider's Jeff Sneider has to say about it:

According to multiple sources, the sequel 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/interviewing people incognito. One source described the film as “Cohen playing Borat playing Cohen.”

Keep in mind that this is unconfirmed at the moment, but Sacha Baron Cohen was spotted on the streets of Los Angeles last month playing Borat as he drove a battered old pickup truck which was being towed by a filming van. At the time I guessed that it would be something related to the upcoming American election, but if it winds up being a proper sequel, I certainly won't be mad.
