"I don't think I am,” she told E! while promoting her new film The Boss. "I didn't actually get asked to do it. But I think they thought I was busy, and then by the time it did come up, then I actually was.” McCarthy added that she was "actually thrilled that it's happening.”

That's pretty upsetting. I am a big fan of Melissa McCarthy and her character Sookie. Its not going to be the same at the Dragonfly Inn without her. I was hoping for a cameo appearance by her but oh well.
