PopWatch reports that Winona Ryder has been quoted in an Empire interview that a Heathers sequel is in the works with Christian Slater and herself attached.
"How very"...encouraging. After months of speculation, Winona Ryder said in an interview appearing in the July issue of Empire that a sequel to the 1988 cult film is in the works. "I swear to God," she said. "But for some reason Dan [Waters, writer] and Michael [Lehmann, director] don't want to talk about it." Maybe you shouldn't be talking about it then, lady! Oh, but she went on. "There is a story, and Christian [Slater] has agreed to come back as a kind of Obi-Wan character."
Michael Lehmann, the director of Heathers, was quoted in 2007 as saying he never saw a sequel as a "realistic possibility."
"I never really saw it as a realistic possibility," Lehmann said. "It's something that Winona talked about for years. She always wanted to do it and Dan [Waters] and I kind of chuckle and say, 'Well, what would that movie be? How do you make a sequel to a movie like that?'"
If they are bringing Christian Slater and Winona Ryder back then why not bring Shannon Doherty back as well? You can read more Heathers sequel discussion here, here, here, here, here, here and here.
