Following the success of The Devil Wears Prada 2, the recent announcement that The Princess Diaries is also returning, 25 years later, and in an era in which cinema lives by reviving the nostalgia of what worked decades ago, it is known that How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days will also have its sequel.
The success of this romantic comedy, which premiered in the early 2000s, will have a continuation, according to Variety. It seems Paramount is preparing a second part and the intention is for Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey to reprise those iconic roles that went down in cinema history in 2003.
Although it is a project in early development stages, many have already echoed this news that has delighted fans of rom-coms. A return for which casting has not yet begun nor has a screenwriter been chosen, but which confirms the millennial nostalgia effect that is so central to releases in series and films.
Moreover, it has emerged that Kate Hudson herself could be one of the producers of this sequel alongside Stacey Sher, known for working on Pulp Fiction and other Hollywood blockbusters. Details that indicate that rumors of this return are true.
Both Kate Hudson and McConaughey would reprise the roles of Andie Anderson and Benjamin Barry.
The news has been celebrated widely, for the story of that journalist who agrees to write an article about how to make a man end a relationship in just ten days was a huge success at the time and, today, remains one of those films to watch again and again.
The man chosen for that article was Ben, an advertising executive who, for his part, has bet with his colleagues that he can make any woman fall in love with him in the same timeframe. A love story that began as a game and ended up becoming one of the era’s most iconic.
The satin yellow dress Kate Hudson wears in one of the scenes is one of the most memorable, recreated and reinterpreted in the history of cinema. A mythical garment that is key to the aesthetics of this film and considered one of the most elegant looks in romantic comedies.
