When will the Romy and Michele sequel be released?
Although it has been confirmed that work on the sequel to Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion is officially underway, we sadly have not been given any timeline of when we can expect to see our favourite blonde besties return to our screens.
Speaking to Us Weekly, Mira shared that the film’s screenwriter, Robin Schiff, is currently still working on the upcoming season of Netflix’s Emily in Paris. Despite the setback, Mira revealed that Robin is still working on the first script for the film, telling the publication, “She’s finishing up her draft to present to the studio.”
What is the plot of the Romy and Michele sequel?
For those of us eagerly awaiting the next instalment of Romy and Michele’s hijinx, there unfortunately is very little information about what we can expect to see in the sequel.
Despite the storyline being a closely guarded secret, Mira shared that she hopes the sequel maintains the same spirit as the original cult classic.
“I still want them to be as relatable, but also as dumb and lovable as they ever were. I don’t think they’ve learned that much in the time in between, but they still have that unstoppable spirit and that friendship and that idiocy that makes everybody kind of love them,” Mira told Us Weekly.
