Comedian Mike Epps is being tapped to reprise his role as ‘Black’ Doug is an upcoming new sequel in the blockbuster Hangover series. Epps is said to be played a larger part in the proceedings in The Hangover Part III. The Huffington Post reports:

It was, however, and that’s a good thing for the comedian: Epps has been asked to reprise his role for “The Hangover Part III.”

Variety reports that Epps will return as Doug (or Black Doug or “the world’s sh-ttiest drug dealer”) in “The Hangover Part III,” which already includes original stars Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis and Ed Helms. Ken Jeong — who played an eccentric supporting part in both the “Hangover” and its sequel — will also return, though THR reported that his role will be much bigger this time around.
