Rachael Leigh Cook Says No 'Josie and the Pussycats' Sequel Talks as Cult Revival Grows

She says the 2001 comedy found its audience long after a weak box-office debut.

Overview

  • Cook confirms there are no active discussions about a sequel or reboot of the 2001 film.
  • She describes herself as proud of the original and not eager to revisit it personally.
  • Asked about ideas, she floated time travel as a purely hypothetical and playful concept.
  • The movie initially grossed $14.8 million, then gradually built a devoted following over the years.
  • Reappraisal highlights its sharp consumer-culture satire and memorable soundtrack featuring Kay Hanley as Josie’s singing voice.
