Starring cast members Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway were not eager to do a sequel, with Streep reportedly saying that she was not interested, and Hathaway stating she would like to work with the same people on "something totally different".[17]
In July 2024, it was reported that Walt Disney Studios, the parent division of 20th Century Studios, was interested in developing a sequel.[18] Negotiations began that month with Aline Brosh McKenna returning to write the screenplay, and Streep, Hathaway, Emily Blunt, and Stanley Tucci reprising their roles from the first film.[19][3]
