The report “Hollywood Reporter” and “Variety”. Curtis (64) linked one of the reports on Instagram. In an interview with the “New York Times” on the occasion of the film’s 20th anniversary, Curtis and Lohan (36) said they were both interested in a sequel.

Curtis won an Oscar in March for her supporting role in the film Everything Everywhere All at Once. Also in March, Lohan announced that she and her husband, Bader Shammas, are expecting a child. Lohan was last seen in the Netflix comedy Falling for Christmas (2022).
