Actor Richard Gere will join stars like Judi Dench, Bill Nighy, Maggie Smith and Penelope Wilton in the upcoming "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel" sequel.
It is currently unknown which new character Gere will play, reported Contactmusic.
The same production team will be on board, with the second film once again being written by Ol Parker. Another returnee is Penelope Wilton, who played Jean in the original film.
"We had a wonderful time shooting this film the first time and I am thrilled we will be going back in January to do another one. As far as I know everybody will be returning," Wilton said.
