Mrs. Doubtfire Sequel in the Works

Everyone's favorite cross-dressing nanny is readying to return to the big screen with a sequel.

The Hollywood Reporter was the first to report that there's officially a sequel in the works, and Robin Williams is involved -- but it hasn't been confirmed if he'll reprise the role of Euphegenia Doubtfire.

David Berenbaum (Elf) is writing the script and Mrs. Doubtfire director Chris Columbus is also said to be involved in the sequel.

We're hoping, that after 20 years, Williams' ex-wife (played by Sally Field in the movie) held onto the house at 2640 Steiner, because we doubt she'd ever be able to afford to move back there on an interior decorator's salary. We're also curious to see how Williams' three children turned out. But if we'll find out seems up in the air, as Perez Hilton pointed out this morning, Mara Wilson (who plays youngest daughter Natalie) has no interest in returning to reprise her role. She says sequels usually suck, and we have to agree -- so they better not mess this up.
