In January 2019, Jada Pinkett-Smith discussed a potential sequel to Girls Trip, stating "I'm ready for more Flossy Posse, trust me. I'm ready to have some fun with my girls!", and giving Rio de Janeiro or South Africa as potential locations for the film.[1] In April 2019, Queen Latifah said that a sequel was "definitely happening."[2]

In March 2020, Tiffany Haddish confirmed Tracy Oliver had a treatment "ready to go", and would begin working on the script. Haddish added "We might decide not to even make it Girls Trip, maybe we'll do a different story just in case no one wants to make Girls Trip 2".[3] In January 2023, Oliver said that the sequel was "officially happening", and confirmed that the main cast would be returning. She also named the AfroFuture festival in Accra, Ghana as a possible setting, pending the finalization of the script.[4]

In January 2024, in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Will Packer confirmed that a sequel to Girls Trip was in active development, with Malcolm D. Lee returning to direct and co-produce.[5]
