Joining the cast are Timm Sharp, Aristotle Athari and Flight of the Conchords' star Jemaine Clement.
The screenplay will once again be written by Akela Cooper, with Gerard Johnstone returning as director.
In the original movie, Girls' star Williams didn't just play Gemma she also worked as an executive producer.
Speaking to Digital Spy last January about how much she enjoyed both acting and working behind-the-scenes on the film, Williams said: "It was such a pleasure to be officially very involved in the movie from the beginning.
"I like to be that involved anyway, but this time, I had a credit that meant I was allowed to be – no-one could deny me drafts of the script. It was the best.
"I absolutely loved it. I feel like it will be hard for me now to be in a movie where I'm not also producing, because I just love all the details. I find it all fascinating and wonderful."
