Fans have been waiting for years for a sequel tothe beloved 2002 romantic comedy “Sweet Home Alabama.
The director [Andy Tennant] is absolutely up for it.
I spoke to him about it a couple of times recently.”
Lucas then admitted that Witherspoon would likely have to be the key to getting the project made.
“So look, I throw it out to you, Reese.
I think the person who’s the one to put it together is Reese, so I’m hoping.

Hopefully, this is one of them.”
He also hinted that Patrick Dempsey’s character could also make a return if the sequel were to happen.
Now, Lucas is offering an update on the potential sequel.
Is Reese Witherspoon holding up the sequel?

“Look, I would love to do the sequel.
The issue is Reese’s got a book club.
You know, she’s a mogul,” Lucas told radio host Jessica Shaw on July 6.
And she’s even beyond that at this point …
