Multiple outlets report that the sequel to the 1980 comedy starring the trio of actresses, is officially not happening. 

Talks of a sequel began in 2018. “All these years we’ve talked about doing a sequel to 9 to 5, but it never made any real sense,” Parton said at the time. “Until just recently (with) all the equal work for equal pay and all the harassment in the workplace (backlash), we decided that we are going to try to do another one,” she added.

But now, Parton confirmed that the planned sequel has been scrapped. 

“I don’t think we’re going to do the sequel,” Parton said. “We never could get the script to where it was enough different than the first one, and that one turned out so good. We’re thinking we might do a completely different thing together, Jane, Lily and I,” she added. “We may do something different altogether, but I don’t think we’ll continue with (the sequel).”

Grace and Frankie premiered in 2015 and told the hilarious and emotional story of two women who have nothing in common but end up forming an unlikely friendship after their husbands decide to leave them – for each other.

Hollywood veterans Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin took on the titular roles in this sitcom and received a series of award nominations for their individual performances. Despite the fact they’ll miss these characters as much as we will, their legacy lives on.

“We are both delighted and heartbroken that Grace and Frankie will be back for its seventh, though final, season. We’re so grateful that our show has been able to deal with issues that have really connected to our grand generation. And their kids, and amazingly, their kids as well,” said the duo in an official statement.

Grace and Frankie tells the story of two women who form an unlikely friendship after finding out their husbands have been romantically involved for years. It’s an amazing celebration of female empowerment and unity in the face of adversity, and that’s part of the reason why it became such a huge hit.

The other reason? The glorious Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin did an amazing job transforming into these character. Both stars received nominations for numerous accolades thanks to playing Grace and Frankie, including Emmy and Screen Actors Guild Award.

This series has been going strong since 2015, and its appeal is spanning generations. Tomlin and Fonda are happy it hit chord with so many different people, especially women their age.

“What Lily and I hear very often is women saying to us: “It makes us feel less afraid of getting older. It makes us feel hopeful.” That makes you feel good,” said Fonda during an interview with Washington Post.

Michael Douglas got a little bit emotional during the ceremony because his 101-year-old dad was one of the people in attendance. The Fatal Attraction star tore up while addressing Kirk and told him how much it meant to him to see him on the Hollywood Walk of Fame that day.

Douglas’ former co-star and long-time friend Jane Fonda also showed up to support him and joked she doesn’t know why it took him so long to get a star. She reminded the world Michael had to work super-hard to get out of his father’s shadow and make a name for himself.

“Michael has not only carved out his identity as a great, great actor with tremendous range but as a great producer as well. He has rightfully been bestowed with all of the awards Hollywood has to offer… and now finally, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame,” said Fonda during the ceremony.

The two-time Oscar winner recently starred in the hit Marvel blockbuster Ant-Man and the Wasp, and he’ll soon make a TV comeback with The Kominsky Method.

In a recent interview, country music icon Dolly Parton said that the hit comedy 9 to 5 will return, much to the show’s fan’s excitement.

While it’s been gestating for a while, it seems that the wait is worth while as Parton revealed that not only she, but also her original co-stars, Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin are game to return for the reboot.

“All these years we’ve talked about doing a sequel to 9 to 5 and it never made any real sense until just recently,” Parton said, adding that she believes that everything that’s going on in the US today will serve as a perfect backdrop for a reboot. “We decided that we are going to do another one. We are trying to get the script and all that, everyone is very interested and we’ve all agreed that we’d love to do it if it’s right.”

While there’s no official confirmation of a sequel or reboot from 20th Century Fox, it sure sounds that Dolly’s plans are concrete.

“They presented with me an idea the other day and I said, ‘Yes,'” she explained. “This new idea [is] going to bring some new girls in… and they’re gonna find us, the old characters. We’ve all come up with a business of our own. So, they come to find us just to get some input.”

The plan is to bring back the original co-writer Patricia Resnick to pen the new script with help from Rashida Jones, a script that will focus on a new trio of women who when dealing with similar workplace issues track down the original trio.

The duo had a blast on the catwalk and looked absolutely gorgeous. Mirren strutted in a trench coat and wide patterned pants accessorizing with black shoes and a cane, while Fonda was clad in a full-length tiger stripe gown with a diamond necklace topping off the look.

In 2014, the then 69-year-old Mirren became a L’Oreal beauty ambassador. “It was about bloody time!” Mirren said of the choice. “I thought, at last there has been a shift [in the fashion industry] – I’m talking about age and beauty, but also diversity.”

The two totally ruled the runway. Mirren looked stunning capping her walk with a fierce pose. Fonda on the other hand had lots of fun when she spotted someone she knew in the crowd and gave them a big wave. The Grace and Frankie star also recently spoke with ET saying that she’s “about as happy as [she’s] ever been,” working hard to accomplish all that she did and staying healthy.

Adapted from the Kent Haruf novel, the film premiered at the Venice Film Festival on Friday and will debut on Netflix in this month. The story is centered on a widow and widower who live next door to each other and fall into an unexpected romantic relationship. Their bond helps them combat their loneliness after many years of living in the same town, but having little interaction.

During a press conference at the Festival, Fonda told reporters that “[i]n Barefoot in the Park, I couldn’t keep my hands off of him. I was constantly forcing myself on him. In Our Souls at Night, the dynamic of my character to his character was somewhat similar. I just love the fact that these films bookend our careers. We played that young love just getting married and now we play old people love and old people sex. Although, In my opinion, Ritesh cut the sex scene too soon.” Fonda went on making a cheeky comment to the reporters saying that Redford “doesn’t like sex scenes,” while she lives for them, but she did also say that Redford is a great kisser, “[i]t was fun to kiss him in my 20s and then to kiss him again in my almost 80s.”

Fonda answered the reporters’ questions very candidly, speaking openly about how love changes as one gets older, “You know your body better, so you’re not afraid to ask for what you need. I think on a love and sex level, it just gets better.” As for Redford, he simply responded, “It just increases.”

Our Souls at Night premieres September 29.
