Back in 2015, Tom Quinn - the co-president of Radius-TWC, who distributed the movie with Dimension Films - noted a follow-up was on the cards.
He told Entertainment Weekly: "I don’t want to give away too much, but we’ve thought about it."
He added that there was "so much you could do" for a sequel, while director Mitchell admitted he was "open" to the idea.
He told Vulture at the time: "I have a lot of different kinds of projects in many different genres, so I don’t know that a sequel would be the next thing that I would do, but I’m certainly open to it.
“I just kinda want to see how things play out.”
And Monroe herself revealed that she was also keen on working with the filmmaker again.
She said: "I don’t know where the story would go, but I would love to work with David, the director, again, because I think he’s incredible, and what he created here was something else.
“We’ll see how it does. Maybe! Maybe!”
