'Valentine's Day' sequel in the works
A sequel to this week's romantic comedy Valentine's Day is already in the works.

According to Deadline Hollywood, Garry Marshall and screenwriter Katherine Fugate are returning to steer the follow-up, which is titled New Year's Eve and will take place in New York City as the clock ticks over to January 1.

Several of the Valentine's Day cast - which includes Julia Roberts, Jessica Alba, Bradley Cooper, Ashton Kutcher, Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner - will be back for the new film.

Marshall was reportedly able to make Valentine's Day for under $50 million by securing the high-profile ensemble cast for smaller fees and allowing them to leave quickly to make other projects.

Valentine's Day opens in cinemas this Friday.
