Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants Sequel

The light version of girl power stories that came out in 2005 is going to spawn a sequel. The original Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants was based on a novel and the planned sequel will be no different.

Cinematical says

The story will be based on the fourth book of Brashare’s series (Forever in Blue) and meets up with the four girls, now in their college years, as a pair of jeans sees them through some tough times. Since the girls are growing up, the film is planning on a PG-13 rating this time around — while still keeping the subject matter family-friendly I’m sure. WB hopes to start shooting on location this June in locations around the world including New York, Turkey, Greece, Providence, and Vermont but WB is apparently willing to accommodate the TV shooting schedules of the principle cast. Ferrera is returning to another season of Ugly Betty, Bledel is apparently going to be coming back for another year of Gilmore Girls, and Tamblyn is working on a drama pilot for CBS.

I saw the original and it wasn’t too deep or impacting, but it was a nice little story about the friendship of 4 very different girls who keep in touch despite heading off into different lives after high school.

I didn’t hate it, but it didn’t do much for me. I kind of expect the same of this one. Of course the books and therefore the movie will be aimed at a teenage girl demographic. The age group who were into the first movie have grown a bit, and likely the second movie will be fitting for that same group.

Its a wise strategy, and will likely pay off for them.

  1. I definitely think that you’ve done a great job with this website it looks really good and you have a ton of great information as well, I know I found what I was looking for anyway. Just thought I would take the time to comment, again keep up the good work

  2. I was reading that Ferrera didn’t want to come back to do it, but the company that has the rights has a sequel option on her, and since she’s gotten popular because of “Ugly Betty” they decided to make this sequel.
