The as-yet-untitled follow-up is being produced by activist studio Participant Media, and directed by Bonni Cohen and Jon Shenk. It follows Gore's continued fight to save the planet.

"Now more than ever we must rededicate ourselves to solving the climate crisis," Gore said in a statement from Paramount. "But we have reason to be hopeful; the solutions to the crisis are at hand. I’m deeply honored and grateful that Paramount Pictures and Participant Media have once again taken on the task of bringing the critical story of the climate crisis to the world."

Paramount will distribute the film sometime in 2017.
