LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - Fueled by White Castle burgers, Harold and Kumar are ready for their next adventure.

Actors John Cho and Kal Penn confirm that they've signed on for two sequels to 2004's comedy "Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle" in which they play the titular stoner buddies on a mission to soothe their pot-induced cravings with the fast food chain's signature sliders.

[Image: story@Middle1]"'Harold and Kumar Go to Amsterdam' is being written as we speak," Penn, 27, tells Zap2it.com, referring to the ending of "White Castle," in which the uptight Harold discovers his crush is traveling to the land of legalized marijuana.

"Whether or not it's going to be made depends on the financial receipts from DVD sales and rentals," he adds. "There will be a very direct correlation -- so please don't download our film off the Internet. If you liked the movie, please rent or buy it -- it'll assure that we'll bring you another one next year."

Cho, 32, is also jonseing for another go at the buddy comedy. "I would love an opportunity to do it: I like the character of Harold, I like the guys involved in making the movie, and although I haven't been, I am very confident that I would like Amsterdam."

The "Extreme Unrated" DVD of the film goes on sale on Tuesday, Jan. 4.

Penn's film credits include "Van Wilder," "Malibu's also appear in the upcoming "Son of the Mask," the Ben Affleck comedy "Man About Town" and Mira Nair's adaptation of Jhumpa Lahiri's novel "The Namesake."

Cho's previous films include the "American Pie" trilogy, "Wag the Dog," "Down to Earth" and "Better Luck Tomorrow." He next appears in the comedy "Bickford Shmeckler's Cool Ideas," which will be released later this year.

Excellent. Kal Penn's work in Van Wilder is unsurpassed. Who can forget these gems:

"Tit! Oh, mommy. Most Indians would say "cow" because they are sacred, but I hear "milk," I think giant jugs. You see, I cannot go home a virgin. I came here to study the great American art of muff diving. To smack clam, munch rug, dine at just one American pink taco stand! You know, I wanted to, how is it, park the porpoise. You know? I want to take it through the car wash, baby. And get it waxed. I want to wax it. Wax it! You know, and air dry. Air dry that shit, yeah! And I would like to be your assistant very much, Mr. Van Wilder."

"That's no bong... It's for my shlong."

Agreed.
Maybe we're getting too old?
