Directorial plans unveiled for upcoming sequel of 'Another Simple Favor' by Paul Feig
Flicking through the pages of the silver screen, director Paul Feig, the mastermind behind the A Simple Favor series, has cheekily spilled some sauce about a potential third installment, folks!
Hold onto your movie popcorn, since the 62-year-old whizz has already hatched some uber-twisty ideas for our beloved characters, Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively. "I've got this ‘cha-ching!’ moment that's just bursting at the seams," he chirped to People Magazine, "We'll see if the gang's down to ride this rollercoaster again. These folks are my homies, and I'd love nothing more than to dive deep into the murky world of Emily Nelson and Stephanie Smothers once more!"
As for the direction this upcoming flick may take, Feig teased, "I reckon it's high time they hopped off their scenic Italian island and ventured into international waters to stir up even more mayhem. Can't say I ain't excited!"
The original A Simple Favor, which tagged 2018 as its premiere date, was tailored from Darcey Bell's blazing novel of the same name. The latest sequel pitted our saucy couplings on a picturesque beachfront in Capri, Italy, but if a third movie materializes, Feig hinted that the stakes will be raised and our cavaliers will explore uncharted terrains.
While the fine details of the plot are hush-hush, Jessica Sharzer and Laeta Kalogridis—the dynamic duo behind the sequel script—are all for another round with our leading ladies. "I'd leap at the chance to revisit these characters and these talented actors," Kalogridis shared with the outlet, "And let's not forget—Paul's creative engine is running hotter than a used-up Rotten Tomato!"
She added, "Ain't gonna lie, these two characters—Emily and Stephanie—are a cauldron of secrets and emotions. It's a ticking time bomb wrapped in a delicious enigma. I can hardly wait to see where that thing explodes next!"
