However, two prominent participants in the film at the time have now denied this report. So shared director and screenwriter Nancy Meyers (72) posted a screenshot of the relevant report on Instagram and wrote about it: “Sorry, but not true”.
Kate Winslet: ‘Never talked about it’
Leading actress Kate Winslet (47), who swaps houses with the character played by Cameron Diaz in “Love doesn’t need a holiday” and finally finds love, denied the rumor to “People”. Winslet, who will be starring in the upcoming sequel Avatar: The Way of Water, said, “I’ve read about it, but it’s the first time I’ve heard of it.” The actress asserts that she has not had any talks about a sequel to the classic love film: “Hand on heart, it was never talked about”.
“The Sun” quoted an unnamed insider yesterday, according to which the shooting of “Love doesn’t need a holiday 2” should start in the coming year. The four main actors Winslet, Diaz, Law and Jack Black (53) should already be “under contract” for the sequel. “Love doesn’t need a holiday” is considered one of the most successful romantic Christmas films. The love film, which was produced for 85 million US dollars, grossed over 200 million dollars at the box office – and is part of the annual Christmas program for many people.
