” fans will be disappointed to learn that a sequel was shot down over budget concerns from Sony.

“We tried to make one and thanks to the Sony hack you can actually find the email when Sony decided to kill the movie and not make it,” he told host Howard Stern. “It was something we were very open to several years ago, but Sony was not that interested in it.” “I am so glad we are so close to getting ‘Pineapple Express 2’ figured out. I am very excited to make this thing real. We are very inspired creatively on this one. We have hilarious ideas. It is gonna be awesome.

Marijuana is so popular now! It’s on every corner!” Apatow wrote in an email.
