The Big Picture Fans of the 2018 dark comedy-thriller A Simple Favor have been eagerly awaiting news about its unexpected sequel, and director Paul Feig recently shed some light on its development at San Diego Comic-Con. Collider's Steve Weintraub caught up with Feig at Collider's SDCC Media Suite where he was there to promote Jackpot, and the director delved into the journey of bringing the sequel to life, the plot, and the challenges of filming in Italy.
'A Simple Favor's Sequel Destination Revealed: Italia Feig was tight-lipped about the plot specifics but did offer a tantalizing hint: "There's a destination wedding in Italy and a lot of crazy stuff happens at it. The thing I realize is—don't work in a place where you normally vacation because you're like, I'm supposed to be having fun, and I'm really stressed out and everything is going wrong," Feig admitted.
The director is currently deep into the post-production phase, with a strict timeline to adhere to. "I have 10 weeks to do my director's cut. We did this test screening after six weeks because I always try to do one really early just to see where we are," Feig detailed. With the final cut due in October and the entire process expected to wrap by early January, a 2025 release is all but confirmed, albeit without a precise date.
