Lisa Kudrow, Mira Sorvino Tease 'Romy and Michele' Sequel at D23
Robin Schiff returned to write the sequel, which will stream on Hulu and Disney+ with several original cast members back.
- On Friday, Lisa Kudrow and Mira Sorvino appeared at Disney's D23 event in Los Angeles to tease the forthcoming Romy and Michele's High School Reunion sequel, appearing in matching white ensembles.
- The 1997 original comedy featured the pair as inseparable friends who lied about their successful careers at their 10th high school reunion, evolving into a cult classic since its modest initial release.
- Tim Federle will direct with a script by original writer Robin Schiff, while original cast members Janeane Garofalo, Alan Cumming, and Camryn Manheim return alongside costume designer Mona May.
- The sequel follows the duo running their Beverly Hills boutique while seeking love in a new life phase, streaming exclusively on Hulu in 2027 as a Hulu Original.
- Although Kudrow and Sorvino were initially "so nervous" about returning without creating a parody, their strong friendship helped them authentically step back into the roles, with Sorvino noting the characters' DNA will remain.
