Another sequel to the 2005 animated movie Madagascar is likely, so says Dreamworks Animation head Jeffrey Katzenberg after screening the second movie in the series.

Around 30 minutes of footage from Madagascar 2: Escape 2 Africa was screened on Wednesday evening, so says The Hollywood Reporter.

Calling it the "second chapter in one story," Katzenberg said to the trade, "there is at least one more chapter. We ultimately want to see the characters make it back to New York."

Ben Stiller, David Schwimmer, Chris Rock and Jada Pinkett Smith all return for the sequel. The late Bernie Mac also provides a voice for the November 7 released movie.
