Ryder And Slater On Board For Heathers 2
1 June 2009 3:00 PM, PDT

Actress Winona Ryder will reprise her most iconic role in a sequel to Heathers - and co-star Christian Slater is also on board.

The duo starred in the cult 1989 comedy about four girls who form a clique at a surburban high school, and rumours of a follow-up film have been circulating for months.

Now Ryder has confirmed she will be revisiting Westerberg High once more, although the project is so secret, even she's struggling to find out more details.

She tells film bible Empire magazine, "Whatever you hear, there is a sequel in the works, I swear to God.

"But for some reason the writer, Dan Waters, and director, Michael Lehman, don't want to talk about it. I've been wanting to do a sequel forever. There is a story, and Christian has agreed to come back."

Glad I'm not the only one. How bad is it that even Shannen Doherty hasn't signed on (at least, as of yet)?? :eek: :lol:

I think it will be a direct to dvd thing. I think the plot would probably something with Winona's character being a teacher.

Heathers Director Baffled By Ryder's Sequel Confirmation
3 July 2009 9:06 AM, PDT

Director Michael Lehmann has dismissed Winona Ryder's comments confirming a sequel to their cult comedy Heathers is in the works, insisting the actress has got it all wrong.

Ryder starred alongside Christian Slater in the 1989 movie, about four girls who form a clique at a suburban high school, and she recently claimed a follow-up is on its way, with the True Romance actor also on board to return to Westerberg High.

She told film bible Empire magazine of her most iconic role, "Whatever you hear, there is a sequel in the works, I swear to God.

"But for some reason the writer, Dan Waters, and director, Michael Lehman, don't want to talk about it. I've been wanting to do a sequel forever. There is a story, and Christian has agreed to come back."

But reports of a sequel is news to both Lehman and Waters - who are adamant there is "no script" and "no plans" for Heathers 2.

Lehman tells Movieline.com, "Winona's been talking about this for years - she brings it up every once in a while and Dan Waters and I will joke about it, but as far as I know there's no script and no plans to do the sequel.

"A couple of weeks ago everyone started talking about it and I guess Winona said the movie was gonna get made, and I thought, 'I don't know, maybe they did this without me?' But I got in touch with Dan Waters and he said he didn't know anything about it. So I don't think there's any truth to it."

i truly believe that they could do a sequel, if they bother to write a good script.
