LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- “Piranha 3-D” fans are going to be able to really sink their teeth into the sequel.

Not only is a second film in the works, but the public will have the opportunity to vote on which celebrity they’d like to see eaten or killed by the bloodthirsty man-eaters in the next installment, a rep for the Weinstein Company confirmed to Access Hollywood on Friday.

Spoiler Alert: The idea for the interactive sequel was inspired after “Piranha 3-D” audiences thoroughly enjoyed watching Jerry O’Connell’s character (who was reportedly based on Joe Francis, the founder of the “Girls Gone Wild” franchise) have his manhood ripped off by crazed piranhas.

Execs at the Weinstein Company are reportedly expecting to receive “plenty of votes” for the cast of “Jersey Shore” and “The Real Housewives,” according to the New York Post, which first reported the news.

Stay tuned – more details on the contest and how to vote are expected to be announced soon…
