The women behind “Book Club” are off to Italy for new adventures after finally cooling off after the scorching read that was “50 Shades of Grey.”
The commencement of production on “Book Club 2 — The Next Chapter,” a sequel to the sleeper 2018 comedy “Book Club,” has been confirmed by Focus Features, Endeavor Content, and Makeready.
