Get your bridesmaids, because there just might be a second My Best Friend’s Wedding. Dermot Mulroney, who starred in the original 1997 film with Julia Roberts, teased a sequel to the hit rom-com during an interview with the New York Post on Friday. Mulroney, 61, told the outlet that the “lawyers were talking,” though he is not privy to any further details. The plot reportedly centers around Roberts’ character, Julianne Potts, scheming to break up the engagement between her crush and best friend, Michael O’Neal, played by Mulroney, and Kimmy Wallace, played by Cameron Diaz. “The whole thing was a dream,” Mulroney said of the film, which he claimed he always knew would be “exceptional.” Mulroney, who is best known for his role in the rom-com, still speaks highly of the film. Two years ago, Mulroney re-watched it for the first time since 1997 with the cast of Anyone But You. Mulroneytook the opportunity to share advice with Anyone But You’s male lead, Glen Powell. “Don’t be ashamed of being a man in a rom-com. To represent love in movies is the most beautiful thing you can take on,” Powell recalls Mulroney telling him.
