Am I Dreaming or Is "My Best Friend's Wedding" Really Getting a Sequel?
Save the date! A sequel to My Best Friend's Wedding is reportedly on the way.
The 1997 rom-com starred Julia Roberts as Julianne Potter, a New York City-based food critic who made a pact to marry her college best friend, Michael (Dermot Mulroney), if they were both still single by the time they turned 28. Instead of getting a proposal on the eve of her 28th birthday, Julianne gets invited to Michael's unexpected wedding to a college junior named Kimmy (Cameron Diaz). The surprise nuptials makes Julianne realize that she's in love with Michael—and now she only has a few days to break up the couple for good.

Celine Song will write the script.
Collider reported on July 29 that Sony has tapped Celine Song to write the sequel's script. Song is well known for her tender and moving depictions of love and romance onscreen; she previously wrote and directed the 2023 Oscar-nominated film Past Lives and the 2025 rom-com Materialists.
The original cast has teased the possibility of a sequel.
Mulroney talked about the potential sequel during an interview with the New York Post on July 25. 'There is talk of a sequel,' he told the outlet. 'I know nothing about it. Last I heard, quote, lawyers were talking, unquote.'
Roberts has also previously expressed interest in returning to her role as Julianne. When asked which of her previous films she'd want to see get a sequel during a 2023 appearance on Watch What Happens Live, she answered, 'I think, maybe, My Best Friend's Wedding.' She added that she would want 'to see what they're doing and how Kimmy and Michael's marriage is going.'

Matthew Koma Calls Out Hilary Duff for Having Sex in Dirty Shirt
Matthew Koma and Hilary Duff are out here being cute and flirty on Instagram, per usual. Hilary posted a video of her husband wearing a tank top that honestly looks like it's seen some things, captioning the photo "Pretty cool that you're still wearing your shirt that you performed in yesterday at sweaty Lollapalooza and you flew home in, and you're well into this day. Also having a pretty intense nip slip right now." Matthew performed at Lollapalooza with his band Winnetka Bowling League, and he shot back "You had sex with me in this shirt. What's that say about you?" I love them. Hilary and Matthew got married in 2019, and she recently gushed about him to Us Weekly (via Yahoo). "Oh, [he's] the best. Are you kidding?" she said. "My friends in town right now from Toronto, and I haven't seen her for a year, and we wanted to get a workout in. So I was like, 'We're gonna do a 7 a.m. workout. You got the kids?' And he's like, 'I'm on it. I got the kids.' He packed lunches and made breakfast and got everybody dressed and drove them to school. Like, he's in it." She added, "He's so hands-on, and then he's also my best friend. We get in bed and just download information to each other at night, and it's for fun. We're really in the thick of it right now."

The 47-year-old Mad Men actor hopped online and dropped a nearly-naked bathroom selfie featuring herself in nude underwear with the caption "Knees are weak, sleep is sweaty, attitude petty…never let my strength leave me." Obsessed with her. In other news, Yahoo! reports that January has caught the eye of Kevin Costner, and that his friends want them to date. Per a source, "Kevin and January have a connection and traded numbers, but if Kevin intends to pursue this he will have to set aside all of his work distractions and woo her. They have a lot in common. They're both somewhat misunderstood in Hollywood and even among their fans, and now they're becoming household names on the strength of their work alone. You can't get around how January is Kevin's type, and she's a giant fan of the guy." They add that "Kevin has met tons of beautiful women since the divorce, but he has trouble taking things to the next level. But everybody in his life is rooting for him to pursue January. It's well known in her inner circle that she thinks Kevin is hot. Kevin has made an impression, and she's letting him know through mutual friends that she's interested. She would love it if he asked her out. So the ball is in Kevin's court."
