It's soccer Tuesday: Bend it Like Beckham 2 in the works
Filed under: Sports, RumorMonger, Newsstand
The woman behind Bend It Like Beckham, writer/director Guinder Chadha, is currently writing a sequel to the movie that unleashed Keira Knightley
on the world. According to Chadha, episode two will be loosely based on
her own life, as was Beckham (Wow, really? I had no idea.). She sees
it, however, as "a
continuation of the characters [rather] than an actual sequel," which I guess
means that it might even not have anything to do with soccer. Dammit.At the end of the first film, the two characters were on their way to California - heaven knows what American craziness they could get up to in part two. Also, gentlemen, since the screenplay is still being written, the involvement of Knightley and co-star Parminder Nagra has yet to be discussed.

How is a continuation of the character's lives not a sequel? I guess Chadha is so used to sequels that rehash the original or those which follow separate characters in similar situations (those being the "TOO" kind rather than the "2" or "II" kind).
