The movie was so successful that it produced four sequels from 1991-2013. Reid and Martin appear in the first three House Party films and the 2013 movie called House Party: Tonight's the Night. 

In August, TMZ caught up with Martin and detailed James' involvement in the new film. "He's very involved, he has complete ownership to my understanding at this point," Martin told TMZ, per HipHopDX. "The release was supposed to be on HBO Max on July 28, and then no one knew what happened. It was pulled from the schedule. I'll leave it like this, from a very reliable source probably don't get no more reliable than this, than the King himself, that now it's going to be a theatrical release."

Martin was then asked if he thinks the film will be a success. "It depends, I don't know how people will feel about how good the film itself will be," he said. "That we'll have to see but with all of that, it kind of speaks for itself. The people involved are very talented. Matter of fact, one of the leads in it is the gentleman from The Chi. Forgive me for not knowing his name but a very beautiful brother and yeah, it's exciting."
