WhetherCharlie’s Angels 3will ever be made or not,Lucy Liushared her views. While attending the premiere of her new film Presence at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival on January 19, Liu reacts to the possibility of a third Charlie’s Angels.
“I honestly don’t know how that’s going to be feasible,” she toldVariety.
“There have been so many iterations, even after the fact… In some ways, it’s such a strange thing to think about it. Times have changed so much since that first one.”
TheShazam! Fury of the Godsstar continued:
“At that time, when we were doing publicity, they had never before had three women on a magazine cover. They didn’t even know how to do it. It was such a strange thing for women to collaborate and be seen as colleagues and friends. It was such a big moment in time, and now it’s shifted. Even when I was doing ‘Ally McBeal,’ there had never been a lead woman in that way. Obviously, there was Mary Tyler Moore and things like that, but really the focus has changed. I’m not in charge of that, but I always enjoy they time that I had and then I move on. I never really dwell on anything like that. But I really would be shocked if that happened.”
