’10 Things I Hate About You’ Director Says a Sequel Is ‘Definitively in the Works’ With Hopes of a New Trilogy: We Have Some ‘Pretty Good Ideas’


'10 Things I Hate About You' may be getting not just one, but three sequels in the not-so-distant future.

In a recent sit-down with People, Gil Junger, who directed the classic 1999 rom-com starring Heath Ledger and Julia Stiles, said he is working on a follow-up trilogy with original “100 Things” producer Andrew Lazar. The original “10 Things I Hate About You” chronicles the life of Stiles’ Kat Stratford, a witty but unpopular teen who lives in the shadow of her overachieving younger sister Bianca, played by Larisa Oleynik. However, her lonely adolescence is remedied when she meets outcast bad boy Patrick Verona, played by the late Ledger.
