The extras casting director for the third and final chapter in this comedy film trilogy is holding open casting calls in Nogales and Tucson, Arizona for people interested in working as paid extras on the film. Arizona shooting commences in mid-October, 2012. Returning for this third film are Zach Galifianakis, Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, Mike Tyson, and Ken Jeong in an expanded role. Heather Graham will also reprise her role as Jade, as will Sasha Barrese as Tracy.

Academy Award nominated filmmaker Todd Phillips will direct his third film in the series from a script that he co-wrote with Craig Mazin. Phillips has stated that this film would be "very much a finale and an ending," and that the story "would not follow the template (of the first two films), but would rather be a new idea". The distributor of this film has announced a release date of May 24, 2013, again aiming for a Memorial Day opening weekend.

Director Todd Phillips will also produce along with Daniel Goldberg. Phillips and Goldberg are partners in Green Hat Films, which is also referred to as Todd Phillips Company. Scott Budnick will executive produce for Green Hat. In February, this film's distributor extended its first-look deal with Todd Phillips’ Green Hat Films through the end of 2013. Phillips' first three films under the initial deal have generated more than $1.2 billion at the global box-office. Thomas Tull will executive produce for Legendary Pictures.
