At the Movies: Sequels to The Departed, Fockers
Talks are underway to serve up a follow-up to Martin Scorsese's The Departed, which to date has earned much acclaim (including five Oscar nods) and $125.2 million in box office. Sources tell Reuters that Departed scribe William Monahan is at work on a take that would involve Mark Wahlberg's Dignam, and introduce a new character to be played by Robert De Niro.... Teri Polo is set to reprise her role as Ben Stiller's wife in Meet the Little Focker.... Harold & Kumar 2 — which will pick up where the original left off, with Harold hot to follow Maria (Paula Garcés) to Amsterdam, but is thwarted when Kumar is mistaken at the airport for a terrorist — also has Neil Patrick Harris, Eddie Kaye Thomas, Rob Corddry, Christopher Meloni and Roger Bart on board.

I don't think Teri Polo signed on for another movie about the Fockers, I think she just said she would be intrested in doing it.

The AP says she is "set" to do the sequel. That's precisely what I reported.

Hey, Matt, so did you ever catch The Departed? If not--SPOILER ALERT. The therapist (blanking on her name right now) found out she was pregnant at the end of the movie. Obviously Leo's & Matt's characters can't come back, but didn't you wonder who the baby's father was? Is this actress slated to reprise her role in the sequel...?
