Dermot Mulroney Says ‘There Is Talk’ of Making a Sequel to Beloved ’90s RomCom originally appeared on Parade.
Actor Dermot Mulroney has some exciting news for fans of his 1997 romantic comedy, My Best Friend’s Wedding.
People magazine reported that Mulroney said “there is talk of a sequel” while speaking to The New York Post in a July 25 interview.
“I know nothing about it. Last I heard, quote, lawyers were talking, unquote,” said Mulroney to the publication.
In addition, the actor said he enjoyed filming My Best Friend’s Wedding, which also stars Julia Roberts and Cameron Diaz.
“Oh my gosh, the whole thing was a dream. I knew even when I got the audition for it with Julia, like waiting in line with a whole bunch of other guys and I got the role. I knew – and all of Hollywood knew – it was going to be an exceptional movie,” said Mulroney during the interview with the New York Post.
Mulroney said he believed My Best Friends Wedding has held up over the years in a 2017 People magazine interview.
“It’s still a gorgeous film,” said Mulroney.
While speaking to People magazine, Mulroney said he enjoyed Roberts’ company. He said while they don’t usually “really talk about the movie,” they often “cross paths” and have “remained friends.”
“We’ll be with each other forever,” said Mulroney, who played Michael O’Neal, a sports journalist planning to wed Kimmy Wallace (Cameron Diaz) in the film.
Roberts, who played Michael’s best friend who harbors strong feelings for him, shared why she believed the movie has resonated with so many people over the years during a 2019 interview with Entertainment Weekly. The actress said she believed that fans appreciate the chemistry between the leads and the backdrop of Chicago.
“We were outside and we were running around and all those things that we were pretending to do, we were doing, except for the isolated plotting and I just think that all that was very refreshing in a way,” said Roberts during the interview.
