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.
