Maya Rudolph: 'I can't imagine Bridesmaids 2 without Kristen Wiig'

Maya Rudolph has suggested that she would be willing to star in a Bridesmaids sequel.

Rudolph - who played Lillian in Bridesmaids - commented on reports that Universal may produce a follow-up even though Kristen Wiig has said she is not interested in a sequel right now.

"I'm not in charge of whether we do a sequel. I'm fine whatever anybody wants to do," Rudolph told Access Hollywood. "I love that group so much, so if we end up doing something together in a different way that would be great too."

She added of Wiig's apparent disinterest in the project: "I think that by now it's established we loved working together and I can't imagine doing a movie like that without one of us - that would just be bizarre and strange."

Bridesmaids director Paul Feig recently said he is optimistic about a sequel even if Wiig chooses not to return.

Melissa McCarthy previously insisted that Wiig's involvement would be key to her signing on for Bridesmaids 2.

McCarthy has received a 'Best Supporting Actress' Oscar nomination for her performance in Bridesmaids, while Wiig and Annie Mumolo have been recognised for 'Original Screenplay'.
