Actress Geena Davis, most recently seen in Netflix\u2019s \u201cThe Boroughs,\u201d says she would love to do a sequel to her 1996 action-comedy thriller \u201cThe Long Kiss Goodnight\u201d.<\/p>\n

Davis\u2019 ex-husband Renny Harlin directed the film which was penned by \u201cLethal Weapon\u201d and \u201cKiss Kiss Bang Bang\u201d scribe Shane Black.<\/p>\n

In the film, she played a mild-mannered schoolteacher with amnesia who gradually realises she used to be a government assassin.<\/p>\n

Samuel L. Jackson co-starred as small-time private eye Mitch Henessey who helps her unravel her past. Jackson has previously said it\u2019s his favorite movie he\u2019s starred in.<\/p>\n

Attending the Bentonville Film Festival in Arkansas, Davis tells Deadline<\/a> she feels the same:<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s my favorite too. I\u2019m supposed to say Thelma & Louise because that movie is irreplaceable, but I have to say, I had so much fun with Sam and we\u2019ve always wished that we could do a sequel.<\/p>\n

In fact, people might not know, but we changed the ending [of the movie] so that Sam\u2019s character was alive. In the original script, he dies and we were like, \u2018No, no, no, no, no. We want to be able to do a sequel if it happens.\u2019 But it probably still could. We\u2019re not too old!\u201d<\/p>\n

Davis is next set to film \u201cThe Kellys\u201d starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Liam Hemsworth, Kelsey Asbille, and Abby Elliott.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"New Line Cinema Actress Geena Davis, most recently seen in Netflix\u2019s \u201cThe Boroughs,\u201d says she would love to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":483340,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[84767,430,156,111,139,69],"class_list":["post-483339","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-bigslider","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/483339","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=483339"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/483339\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/483340"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=483339"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=483339"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=483339"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
