Lisa Kudrow and Mira Sorvino have commenced filming the long-anticipated sequel to the 1997 comedy, Romy and Michele's High School Reunion. The original film, which became a cult classic despite modest box office success, featured the duo as quirky fashion designers attending their high school reunion. The sequel is set to be released as a Hulu Original, with a potential release date in 2027, marking the characters' 40th high school reunion. Directed by Tim Federle, the film will see the return of original cast members, including Janeane Garofalo and Alan Cumming, along with new faces like Keegan-Michael Key. Original screenwriter Robin Schiff is also back to write the script. Kudrow has emphasized the importance of keeping the characters relatable and true to their original essence, stating they should remain 'as dumb and lovable as they ever were.' The production team includes some of the original film's producers and costume designer Mona May, who aims to capture the fun and fabulous fashion of the original.
