Overview
- Gil Junger is co-writing and developing ‘10 Things I Hate About Dating,’ the first installment in a planned sequel trilogy, alongside producer Andrew Lazar and writer Naya Elle James.
- The trilogy will include two additional films, tentatively titled ‘10 Things I Hate About Marriage’ and ‘10 Things I Hate About Kids,’ though none have been greenlit yet.
- The new film will draw inspiration from Molière’s 1666 play ‘The Misanthrope,’ reflecting the original film's Shakespearean roots.
- Junger plans to honor the late Heath Ledger with a tribute in the new film and has expressed interest in involving original cast members like Julia Stiles and Larry Miller.
- A Broadway musical adaptation of the original film is also in development, with Carly Rae Jepsen and Lena Dunham contributing to the score and book, respectively.
