ON THE HORIZON: 27 DRESSSES SEQUEL UPDATES
Katherine Heigl's Requirements for a Return to Jane Nichols
Actor Katherine Heigl in talks for sequel of 27 Dresses, contingent upon specific term
Amid the buzz about a potential sequel to the 2008 romantic comedy, "27 Dresses," Katherine Heigl has voiced her interest in reprising her iconic role under specific prerequisites. The 46-year-old actress seems keen to step back into Jane Nichols' shoes once more, but only if the sequel is executed flawlessly and reunites her with the talented cast she adores[1][2][3].
Heigl has previously shown ardent interest in exploring the characters' lives years after the original story[2]. She has hinted at the possibility of Jane and her husband Kevin grappling with family planning issues, while their friends navigate raising their own kids[2].
Proposed Sequel Direction
The storyline of the original movie centers around Jane, a perennial bridesmaid, who discovers love in an unconventional manner. For a potential sequel, Heigl envisions a situation in which Jane and Kevin face personal challenges, such as fertility struggles. Meanwhile, her friends Tess and George could be portrayed as parents, with Jane serving as a godparent[2]. This narrative setup could offer fertile ground to examine themes such as love, family, and personal development, which were essential to the original film.
Trending Topics and Cast Involvement
Negotiations regarding a potential sequel are ongoing, with Heigl herself hinting at productive discussions[4]. The presence of the original cast, including James Marsden, Malin Akerman, and Judy Greer, is pivotal for Heigl's participation. The sequel would likely aim to replicate the magic of the original while delving into themes relevant to the characters' lives a decade later[3][4].
Meanwhile, James Marsden has come up with a hilarious yet improbable title for the sequel, "27 Children," jokingly suggesting Play-Doh and teddy bears as potential props[5].
