Seth Rogen fans have something to cheer about this weekend - the star will be coming back to our screens next year with Neighbors 2.

Universal Pictures announced Friday that it will release a follow-up to the hit 2014 comedy in May next year.

The original film starred Rogen and Rose Byrne as a married couple with a young baby whose lives were turned upside down when Zac Efron's fraternity moved in next door.

Neighbors was one of the biggest comedy hits of 2014, taking in $150 million at the domestic box office and over $268 million worldwide, from just an $18 million production budget.

According to the Hollywood Reporter the second film will have a female twist.

In the sequel, which also will be directed by Nicholas Stoller, a sorority moves in next door to the young family. Efron will again co-star.

"Neighbors" was produced by Rogen and Evan Goldberg, the duo also behind Sony Pictures' "The Interview." They are also producing an animated comedy for Sony titled "Sausage Party."
