Anna Faris has hinted that a sequel to The House Bunny could be on the way, saying there is already interest in revisiting the 2008 comedy. The actress made the comments at the Los Angeles premiere of Scary Movie 6 on Wednesday, June 3, where she spoke on the red carpet about the possibility of returning to the role of Shelley Darlingson.
Faris said she would “love to talk” about House Bunny and noted that the idea is not as far-fetched as she once believed. While she stopped short of confirming any official plans, she said it “turns out there’s interest” and added that the film has remained beloved over the years, along with her character. Her comments have sparked fresh speculation among fans of the cult comedy, which mixed sorority-house humor with a cast of rising stars and familiar celebrity cameos.
Released in 2008, The House Bunny starred Faris alongside Emma Stone, Colin Hanks, Kat Dennings, Katharine McPhee, Rumer Willis and others. The movie also featured appearances from Hugh Hefner and several of his girlfriends, including Holly Madison, Kendra Wilkinson and Bridget Marquardt, as well as guest spots from Justin Baldoni and Shaquille O’Neal.
The story follows Shelley, a former Playboy Bunny who is forced to leave the mansion and finds herself helping a group of awkward sorority sisters save their house from being taken over by a rival group. In exchange, Shelley helps the Zeta Alpha Zeta girls learn confidence, style and social skills, while they help her discover individuality and self-acceptance. The film’s message centers on embracing authenticity and finding value in being yourself.
Over the years, The House Bunny has maintained a loyal audience and developed into a favorite for viewers who appreciate its blend of comedy, makeover fantasy and underdog spirit. Faris’s latest remarks suggest that the movie’s continuing popularity may have opened the door to new ideas surrounding the character and the world she inhabited.
At the same time, Faris made it clear that it is still too early to say whether anything will actually move forward. No sequel has been officially announced, and there are no confirmed details about cast, plot or production plans. Still, her comments have been enough to reignite interest in a film that many fans have long hoped to see revisited.
For now, The House Bunny remains available for rental or purchase on digital platforms including Prime Video, Apple TV, YouTube and Google Play, giving audiences a chance to revisit the original while waiting to see whether Shelley’s story could continue.
