It’s been a few months since To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before hit Netflix and made us instantly fall in love with Peter Kavinsky and want to be best friends with Lara Jean Covey. The moment we finished watching the movie, we have all been dying to have a sequel. Well, it looks like our dreams might be coming true, as it appears a TATBILB sequel is in the works.
On November 27th, TATBILB director, Susan Johnson, seemed to confirm that Covey and Kavinsky will be reuniting on our screens in the near future. In a Instagram post, Johnson shared a photo of a Collider article that reported the news of the sequel, captioning it, “Well, the cat’s out of the bag! Thanks for the support, everyone!!! It’s all you!”
Earlier in the day, The Hollywood Reporter shared that a sequel is “one of the first movies being discussed” between Paramount Pictures and Netflix as part of their multi-picture deal.
A representative from Netflix did tell Teen Vogue, however, that the sequel has not been finalized and is still in the discussion stage. “The sequel is not confirmed, we are purely in discussions,” the representative said.
But Johnson’s previous comments about a potential sequel seem like the movie will likely happen.
“Relationships are hard to navigate and they’ll find themselves in one. And they’ll discover what the next person might bring in John Ambrose McClaren,” Johnson told E! News back in August.
“We’re so invested in Peter and Lara Jean, that seeing them go through struggles is going to be hard but also something everybody can relate to,” she added. “The next shiny face comes in and you’re like, ‘Oh shoot, this guy’s really nice too. What do I do?’”
Plus, there is definitely more material to create movies based on, considering TATBILB author Jenny Han wrote a trilogy, including P.S. I Still Love You and Always and Forever, Lara Jean.
Not to mention, our favorite cast members — AKA Lana Condor and Noah Centineo — seem pretty stoked about the idea of a sequel.
Just days ago at the Vulture Festival, Condor talked about a sequel, saying, “The whole cast would love to do it.”
While at the premiere of Sierra Burgess Is a Loser in August, Centino told Variety that the entire cast was hoping for a second film.
“All I know is that every single person involved in the making of that film wants a sequel,” Centineo said. “We’ve all talked about it in depth. I’ll do as many as they want me!”
But until Netflix gives the official word, we’ll definitely be keeping our fingers crossed for the sequel.
