The 2011 movie Bridesmaids quickly became a cult classic because of its at times shocking humor, genuinely comedic moments and women-led take on a typical buddy comedy. The star-studded cast included Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph, Rose Byrne and Melissa McCarthy, among many others, so it was really no surprise that it was both incredibly funny and a major hit.
What is surprising, however, is the fact that neither of these two factors has ever led to a sequel. In the 15 years since the original Bridesmaids was released, there’s been seemingly no concrete movement on a Bridesmaids 2—and now, McCarthy has provided some devastating insight regarding why that might be, and it may mean we never see a follow-up to this masterpiece movie.
Speaking to Variety about the fate of Bridesmaids 2, McCarthy was asked “For the never-made Bridesmaids 2, I’d heard that Kristen [Wiig] and Annie’s [Mumolo] idea was that Lillian gets divorced, and there’s a divorce party. Why did that not happen?” In response to that, McCarthy said, “That I don’t know.”
However, she went on to describe how enjoyable the Bridesmaids set was, saying, “It was so fun. Literally laughing on set in such a way that I am shocked that we shot stuff…So that was what shooting was like. It was like you were literally hiding because someone was always like, ‘Oh, I’ve dropped something,’ because they’re under the table laughing. That’s just not a bad day.” Concluding this statement, though, McCarthy added, “I don’t know. I think it’s gotten so corporate. I miss the people that work off their gut.”
While the latter is not necessarily a direct confirmation that the more “corporate” approach of the industry these days, in McCarthy’s view, is the reason why Bridesmaids 2 hasn’t happened, it does seem as though that changing landscape may have had an impact on whether a potential sequel could really get off the ground. In fact, the real meaning of McCarthy’s sentiment seems to be that the kind of free-flowing fun had on the Bridesmaids set just doesn’t happen anymore, and devastatingly, that may mean we never get a sequel.
