Jennifer’s Body might be returning for seconds. Speaking to Bloody Disgusting on the red carpet for her new film Seven Veils, star Amanda Seyfried says she “thinks” a sequel may be on the way. “I think we’re making another one,” Seyfried said. “I didn’t confirm it! I said, ‘I think.'” Directed by Karyn Kusama and written by Diablo Cody, Jennifer’s Body, the story of a young woman blossoming into a cannibalistic demon, bombed upon release in 2009. However, the movie has spent 15 years building a cult following. Last year, Cody told Bloody Disgusting that she’s “not done with Jennifer’s Body.”

“I just need to find…I need to partner with people who believe it in [sic] as much as I do and that hasn’t really happened yet,” she said. “I need someone to believe in it who has a billion dollars.” Cody said she spent years coming to terms with the film’s failure. “At first I just thought, oh where was this audience when I needed it and then I realized they were like…seven.”

“I was pretty humiliated to be perfectly honest with you,” she said. “It was a rough experience having that movie come out. It was rough for me, it was rough for Megan [Fox]. [But] people started suddenly talking about it like it was a good movie, which I had thought all along.”

Megan Fox have also expressed interest in resurrecting Jennifer. “I don’t think it’s a hard movie to make a sequel to,” Fox said in 2021. “I mean, they should make it into a TV series. That would be cool.”
