Zoe Saldaña Is Open to a ‘Crossroads’ Sequel but Says ‘It Would Only Work’ With Britney Spears Returning
variety.comMichaela Zee Zoe Saldaña is open to working on a sequel to the road trip comedy-drama “Crossroads,” in which she starred alongside Britney Spears.
While playing a game of Variety‘s “Know Their Lines,” Saldaña weighed in on whether or not she would reprise her role as Kit from the 2002 film.
She also shared a few conditions she believes the hypothetical sequel should meet. “Why not?” Saldaña said. “But I feel like it would only work if Britney comes back and plays her character again.
And Taryn Manning does as well, and Anson Mount. And that we write realistic sort of scenarios for them. That would be beautiful.” Saldaña noted the rise in popularity of sequels over time and how “we’ve been living the last 20 years in the world of sequels.” She added, “Usually, you thought that sequels were only for action movies or superhero movies, and now, sequels can live in all kinds of genres.” “Crossroads” follows three childhood friends — Lucy (Spears), Kit (Saldaña) and Mimi (Taryn Manning) — who, after eight years apart, rediscover their friendship on a cross-country trip.
