Stepping is coming back to the big screen. In the "Stomp the Yard" sequel, "Stomp the Yard: Homecoming," new feuds are about to get settled the only way they should: on the dance floor.

Short is returning for the sequel, but director Rob Hardy wouldn't share who else would be back for more stepping action. "As far as the actors coming back, well, there might be some familiar faces," he said when MTV News caught up with him at auditions for the film. "Keep in mind, this is four years after the first one took place, so a lot of those guys graduated. But because it is homecoming, you're sure to see a lot of familiar faces from the first one popping up on the screen."
Last time around, superstars like Ne-Yo and Chris Brown had roles in the flick, and Hardy said there may be other famous faces in the sequel, but nothing appears to be confirmed yet. "We have a lot of artists that we are talking about, so we're gonna see what happens," he told MTV News. "We have a lot of new artists that we're talking about as far as making cameos for this film, but once we know, [we'll let you know]."
What fans can expect, however, is killer music for the flick. Everyone from Ne-Yo to Ghostface Killah and Public Enemy was featured on the original soundtrack. "This movie, musically, is going to be a mash-up," he explained. "You're gonna have pop and rock and alternative music. So, the best way to sum it up in a nutshell is like Jay-Z, Linkin Park mashed together with a little bit of the Dirty South."
