Speaking to Variety Studio presented by Audible, she said, "It’s officially happening. I can say that… No one else knows this and Will Packer might kill me, but we’re looking to set it in Ghana.”
While the original movie had the group of friends traveling to the Essence Music Festival in New Orleans, Oliver hinted that the ladies will be attending Afrochella, Ghana’s biggest music festival.
A production timeline remains unknown for now as Oliver is still working on her script.
