As reported by ET, Bledel opened up about her love for film adaptations and said, "We want it to happen, I really hope so. It keeps kind of coming up and we’re really trying to make it happen. So, I really hope so. We don’t get to see each other a lot because everybody’s work or family and everything, but when everybody is in town we do, and we just pitched a third movie and I hope it comes together."

"It would be so great," Bledel added. 

Her co-star Blake Lively also shared the same sentiment and said, "I think it could really happen. I think that people who love the movie want to see it. So, I mean, fans have gotten bigger movies made. Deadpool is all thanks to the fans. So I’m saying we’ll do it."

Bledel and Lively both starred in the original movie which was released in the year 2005 and also in the sequel which was released in the year 2008 alongside Amber Tamblyn and America Ferrera. The films have been based on the novel by Ann Brashares which has four sequels.
