Apparently That Wasn't The Last Kiss

Zach Braff fans who were dissatisfied with the unresolved, open ending of The Last Kiss might be in for more luck. No, Braff hasn’t signed on to appear in another movie, because a sequel to the 2006 flick hasn’t been created yet. But it has been revealed that Italian director Gabriele Muccino, who directed L’Ultimo Bacio (the movie The Last Kiss was adapted from), is headed back to Italy to write and direct a follow-up picture, titled Baciami Ancora, or Kiss Me Again.

Empire Magazine reports that Muccino has reunited his original cast for the new story, which will pick up ten years after the events of L’Ultimo Bacio. Muccino is currently writing the screenplay for the sequel, which will begin filming in Rome this spring.

Now, this doesn’t mean that there’s any chance that Braff will return to do another movie with Tony Goldwyn, who directed The Last Kiss, but if the first movie was enough of an inspiration for an American remake, is it too far fetched to think the sequel will be as well?
