'Bridesmaids' sequel 'already being discussed'

Paul Feig has revealed that a sequel to the new comedy Bridesmaids has already been discussed by studio execs.

Speaking to New York Magazine, the director confessed that he hoped a second film would be made as he feels it would be "a crime" not to utilize the comedic skills of the movie's stars - which include Kristen Wiig and Maya Rudolph - again in the future.

"I mean, it depends how we do in the next couple weeks, but I know there's definitely... it's already been brought up," he explained.

"So, um, you know, when you get a group that's this deep and this good, it's a crime to not use them again. You just want to make sure that you do it as well as you did the first one and try to make it better, even. So, we're up for the challenge."

Bridesmaids opened on May 13, entering the US box office in second place and pulling in $22.4 million over the weekend.

It will be released on June 24 in the UK.
