In 1997, Romy White and Michele Weinberger captured our hearts as they headed across the US towards their high school reunion in Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion, a movie that examines friendship, bullies and the damage of high school.

Romy (Mira Sorvino) and Michele (Lisa Kudrow) were the Madonna-loving, Post-It-inventing BFFs whose clothing, with its “fun, frisky use of colour”, deserved as many accolades as the pairs’ friendship.

It’s one of those movies, like Clueless or Mean Girls, that is able to stand with confidence on its own but we would all love a sequel if it was possible. And maybe for Romy and Michele, it is—almost.

Sorvino, who spoke to Us Weekly on June 11 at the Jett premiere in New York City revealed she and Kudrow are down for a follow-up.

“We always hope so,” Sorvino said, who noted that the movie’s writer and producer Robin Schiff is also onboard.“[We] are all down for it. It’s just [up to] the powers that be,” Sorvino continued, adding that she and Kudrow are still good friends and often have lunch together.

It’s not the first time Sorvino or Kudrow have commented on the possibility of a sequel, with the former telling Us Weekly in 2018, “The fans have been clamouring for it”.

Likewise, Kudrow mentioned to E! in 2017 that she would be open to reprising her role “if it makes sense for those two people to be around my age and see what’s going on”.

Does it make sense to see where Romy White and Michele Weinberger are now, over 20 years after they stole the show in their platform heels and feather-trimmed mini dresses?

It’s likely fans will say ‘yes’ at the chance to catch up with their old friends some 30 years after Sagebrush High School’s 10-year reunion.
