Though the plot is under wraps, Hathaway previously dished on what Andy is up to today.
“I think that she is writing for a wonderful French women's magazine. I think she's a staff writer and she speaks French fluently. I don't think she's married, but she might have a child or two. I think she's pretty fab," she told a news outlet in 2022.
Meanwhile, Blunt said she hopes her character is “eating a nice French dip sandwich somewhere and she’s just happy.”
“Not a cube of cheese,” she joked, referencing her character’s former diet. “I hope she’s sort of transitioned to a full sandwich.”
The announcement of the sequel came via social media, featuring a nostalgic video showcasing some of the film's most iconic lines.
