Lucas went on to say:
"And back when I was doing Sugariness Home Alabama, I, for some reason, think telling the director or somebody speaking about her, merely I said, 'I bet this woman ends up running a movie studio one day.' And she's even beyond that at this point. … I mean it's extraordinary and not surprising either, at all."

Witherspoon herself also has a soft spot for the Southern romance moving-picture show. During an August 2016 Facebook live chat, the Large Little Lies star said:
"I love Sugariness Home Alabama! We are not making a sequel that I know of, but if Disney wants to call me, I would happily make a Sweet Home Alabama 2!"
Sweet Home Alabama was made past Walt Disney Visitor subsidiary Touchstone Pictures, which has been effectively replaced by 20th Century Studios and Searchlight Pictures as the label backside Disney'due south more mature films.

At one bespeak before the buyout, manager Andy Tennant had already developed a concept for a sequel film. In Apr 2019, Lucas told Good Morning America:
"I've admittedly said yes. He [Tennant] and I discussed it extensively then we're lobbying the world to join us…[the plot] which was quite interesting, is that my character is dorsum in Alabama and Reese's grapheme is in New York with our kids and we're divorced, so [their] whole life is super complicated."
"I kind of love the idea that they have actually divorced and been divorced for a while and he wants her back. Kind of to realize what he'south lost once more and that the kids even, that their lives have separated in some means, and I call back that's sort of the magic of that story is that there'south an eternal dearest there. That bond that they accept. Even when they're autonomously, in that location'south something connected about the two of them. And that they've had it since they were little kids."
