American Pie 2 is a 2001 American comedy directed by J.B. Rogers, reuniting the cast for a summer after their freshman year of college. Jim, Kevin, Oz, Finch, and Stifler rent a lakehouse where they throw the party of the summer while navigating the complications of their evolving relationships — Jim's pursuit of band camp Michelle, Kevin's attempt to maintain a friendship with his ex Vicky, Oz's long-distance relationship with Heather, and Finch's continued obsession with Stifler's Mom.

The sequel maintained the original's formula of raunchy comedy grounded in genuine affection for its characters, and the ensemble's comfort with each other gave the film a relaxed, lived-in quality. Seann William Scott's Stifler was given an expanded role that capitalized on his breakout popularity. American Pie 2 earned $287 million worldwide on a $30 million budget.

The film demonstrated the enduring commercial viability of its franchise and genre to global audiences, solidifying its position in the modern blockbuster landscape.
