The cult 1990 film “Pretty Woman” may get a sequel. According to Western media, the studio is discussing the possibility of filming a sequel featuring the leading actors, Julia Roberts and Richard Gere.
It has been 35 years since the love story of the incredibly wealthy businessman Edward Lewis and the sex worker Vivien Ward conquered viewers around the world and entered the golden age of romantic comedies. In 1990, Roberts was only 23 years old, while Gere, who was in his early 40s, already had a reputation as one of the main sex symbols of Hollywood. Today, the actress is 57, and her on-screen partner is 76.
The film not only cemented Julia Roberts’ status as a star of the first magnitude, but also forever inscribed her tandem with Richard Gere in the pop culture canon.
According to insiders, the new project will not be a direct repetition of the original story. It is a more mature, nostalgic sequel that will show the characters decades after the events of the first film. The script is currently in the early stages of development, and there have been no official confirmations from the actors or the studio yet.
