A modern Christmas classic is in line for a much-anticipated sequel some 17 years after the original arrived on our cinema screens. The Holiday has become a feel-good favourite over the years following its release in 2006, and fans have been eagerly awaiting news for a follow-up ever since.
Starring Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jack Black and Jude Law, the rom-com did decent business at the box office (over £200million from a £70m budget) but its legend has grown over the years with many families sitting down to watch it every Christmas. Hollywood seems now to have woken up to the fact of the film's enduring popularity.
Cameron, 50, Kate, 47, Jude, 49, and Jack, 53, have all reportedly signed up to start filming the film's sequel next year – a source has claimed.
