Kel Mitchell’s get up for Good Burgers 2 set Twitter alight with jokes and memes comparing him to Jada Pinkett Smith, though Mitchell was quick to laugh things off.
Excitement for the long-awaited sequel to the cult comedy classic Good Burgers is mounting ahead of its scheduled release later this year. And footage from the set has fueled even more speculation about the outfit and makeup choices in character in particular, setting Twitter alight with memes and comparisons that prompted a hilarious response from none other than Kel Mitchell.

The Good Burger 2 meme fest began this week on social media after a selfie from the set emerged – granting fans a first glimpse at how Mitchell, of Kenan and Kel fame, was dressed up for shooting.
Mitchell, who is set to reprise the role of Ed, was dressed in his signature burger-flipping uniform and appeared to have been coated in makeup on set.
In typical internet fashion, the internet was quick to react and Mitchell’s throwback look was met with a series of memes, and a whole load of comparisons to Jada Pinkett Smith:

Thankfully, Mitchell appeared to take the memes in good spirits.
“They said I look like Jada Pinkett (Smith)”, said Mitchell while posing in his full movie costume next to his co-star Kenan Thompson. “So we about to set it off!”
Mitchell’s set it off quip was of course a reference to Pinkett Smith’s role in the iconic 1996 crime drama of the same name.
The Good Burgers star then proceeded to sing along to Queen Latifah’s Set It Off from the movie’s soundtrack, an added layer of reassurance in case there was any doubt about his ability to take a joke.
What we know about Good Burger 2
Of course, the added media attention surrounding Mitchell’s look has only fuelled fans’ hunger for the next serving of Good Burger, so what do we know?
The sequel was first confirmed back in March when Mitchell and Thompson appeared on late-night TV to announce the good news, and, according to an ABC journalist, shooting first began last week on May 18.
Though there is not an official release date at the time of writing, the movie, which is being backed by Paramount Plus, is set to be released later in 2023.
