‘Romy & Michele’s High School Reunion 2’—Because 90s Nostalgia Never Quits!

Buy Me A Coffee

It looks like the queens of questionable business ideas, Romy and Michele, are strapping on their platform heels for another round of retro hijinks. And the news? It’s almost as iconic as their infamous high school reunion outfits.

Mira Sorvino, a.k.a. Romy “Invented the Post-it Note” White, has given fans a juicy update that’s more exciting than finding out someone else did the actual inventing. According to People magazine, a sequel to the 1997 cult comedy classic Romy & Michele’s High School Reunion is “so close to being greenlit,” which is Hollywood-speak for, “We’re just waiting on someone to sign off on the snacks budget.”

Here’s what we know: Mira spilled the tea that a director has been locked in (we hope they appreciate hot glue and glitter), and both she and Lisa Kudrow (our beloved Michele “I’m the Mary” Weinberger) are all in as executive producers. Oh, and guess who else is back? The OG screenwriter, Robin Schiff! She’s apparently been busy writing “multiple drafts of an amazing funny script,” which we assume includes at least one epic interpretive dance scene.

But wait, there’s more! Mira confirmed that nearly every single character from the original is penciled in to return. Yes, every single one. (We’re looking at you, Janeane Garofalo and your eternally angsty cigarette.) Of course, there’s always that fine print—deals need to be made, contracts need signing, and someone has to make sure Alan Cumming’s time machine is fully operational.

The best part? Mira hinted that filming could kick off as early as the second quarter of next year. That means we’re potentially just months away from seeing what Romy and Michele have been up to since their last reunion. Have they leveled up their lies? Are they still rocking matching feather boas? And most importantly, has Sandy Frink’s fortune doubled again?

But let’s not get too carried away. Mira was quick to remind us that while the project is tantalizingly close, it’s not officially a go yet. “I can’t say that it’s officially greenlit,” she teased. Translation: Someone needs to dust off a giant rubber stamp and make it happen already!

For the uninitiated (where have you been, under a rock glued with non-Post-it adhesive?), the original movie followed Romy and Michele as they returned to their 10-year high school reunion in Tucson, Arizona. Determined to one-up their former classmates and bullies, they spun a web of fabulous lies about their “success” (spoiler: they didn’t invent Post-its, but they did invent friendship goals). The star-studded cast included Janeane Garofalo, Alan Cumming, Camryn Manheim, Elaine Hendrix, and Justin Theroux, plus enough quotable one-liners to fuel a thousand TikToks.

So, buckle up, 90s kids and fans of quirky comedy. The reunion might not be officially official yet, but it’s shaping up to be as epic as Romy and Michele’s businesswoman dance. Until then, start practicing your best “What a cute outfit! Where’d you get it?” comeback.
