Harold and Kumar are going to get some burgers and buzz one more time.

Jon Hurwitz, Hayden Schlossberg and Josh Heald, the creators behind worldwide Netflix sensation Cobra Kai, have closed a deal to write a new installment of Harold & Kumar, the buddy stoner comedy movie series that was popular in the early 2000s.

Hurwitz and Schlossberg will also direct the feature, which is being developed at Lionsgate-owned Mandate Pictures. It is a full circle moment for the gentlemen as their Hollywood career got high thanks to writing the original movie, 2004’s Harold & Kumar go to White Castle, and making their directorial debut with 2008’s Harold & Kumar Escape Guantanamo Bay.
