9 to 5 Sequel is a Go!

Dolly Parton, Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda reunited on Thursday to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of 9 to 5 with a DVD launch. They also had a special announcement to make. They announced that they will start shooting a 9 to 5 sequel in the fall for a 2007 release.

Lily said: "It's been in the works for a while and we're all so happy to reunite and show the world that women in their 60s can still rock out!"

They have recruited Mike Nichols to direct with a screenplay by playwright Paul Rudnick.

The plot takes place 26 years later with Judy, Violet and Doralee reuniting at the funeral of Mr. Hart. At the funeral Judy (Fonda) reveals to the girls that she's taken a job at her daughter's company. She tells that that her daughter is now terrifying her life, because she's such an awful boss! Violet and Doralee agree to help Judy out by getting back at her daughter!

Jane Fond said: "It's going to be a hoot! We've asked Reese Witherspoon to play my daughter! I really hope she takes it! She's a wonderful actress!"

The new title will be 10 to 6, because Dolly said: "People are start working later now! I don't know anybody that starts at 9 anymore!"
Honestly, this is going to be the hottest shit on EARTH! However, I don't want to see Reese in that role. I can't stand her ass!
