There Could Be a ‘Big Little Lies’ Sequel Of Sorts

Did you cry tears of sadness when Big Little Lies ended? Well, you’re going to love this—Reese Witherspoon and Nicole Kidman, who produced and acted in the show, have the rights to BLL author Liane Moriarty’s follow-up novel, Truly Madly Guilty.

“The novel explores the most fundamental relationships—marriage, parenthood, and friendship—and how easy it is to take those dynamics for granted,” Variety reported in Aug. 2016. “The story takes place over a weekend, among six adults and three kids.”

It’s unclear if Witherspoon and Kidman would also star in Truly Madly Guilty and whether it would be a movie or another limited series. Though Truly Madly Guilty isn’t a Big Little Lies sequel per se, we’d love to see Reese and Nicole in another project based on Moriarty’s writing.

Regardless of how involved the two are, we’re excited.
