Diablo Cody Is Writing a Jennifer’s Body Sequel, Karyn Kusama Says

The project remains in early development without a studio greenlight or confirmed cast.

Overview

  • Karyn Kusama told Deadline that original writer Diablo Cody is "working on it right now" and described the ideas as "fun and crazy."
  • Kusama has been briefed on the story’s broad direction, though her return to direct has not been announced.
  • Multiple outlets note there is no studio approval or financing in place, with 20th Century not confirming a greenlight.
  • Amanda Seyfried has publicly pushed for a follow-up and said she would not do it without Megan Fox, with producer Mason Novick reported to be attached.
