After years of waiting and endless fan theories, Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion 2 is finally happening — and Alan Cumming just dropped some major updates that have everyone buzzing.
In a recent interview, Cumming, who famously played the quirky and wealthy Sandy Frink in the 1997 cult classic, confirmed that the long-rumored sequel is in the works — and yes, the original stars Lisa Kudrow and Mira Sorvino are back!
“It’s not just talk anymore,” Cumming said. “We’ve got a script, and it’s funny, smart, and totally true to the spirit of the first movie. Fans are going to love where these characters are now.”
According to Cumming, the sequel will follow Romy and Michele decades after their unforgettable high school reunion, exploring how their friendship has evolved and what hilarious misadventures they’re up to next. While he kept plot details under wraps, he hinted at unexpected cameos, outrageous fashion, and a “huge surprise twist” that even longtime fans won’t see coming.
So, when can we finally see Romy and Michele 2? Cumming says production is set to begin later this year, with a late 2026 release window being the current target. “We want to get it just right,” he shared. “It’s not just nostalgia — it’s about telling a fresh story that still honors everything people loved about the original.”
Social media lit up as fans reacted to the news. On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag #RomyAndMichele2 started trending within hours, with many expressing excitement (and relief) that the beloved characters are making a comeback.
With the original film gaining a cult following over the years, the sequel is already shaping up to be one of the most anticipated comedies of the decade. If Cumming’s excitement is any hint, it sounds like Romy and Michele are about to steal our hearts — and maybe a few Post-it notes — all over again.
