Chocolat Sequel Recipe for Success

Chocolat fans could be in for a treat, as it seems a sequel to the hit movie might be on the cards.

Joanne Harris, the author behind the film has brought out a new book featuring the same characters - and she's sent it to Juliette Binoche, the star of the first movie.

"I've sent her a copy because I think she'll enjoy it and I will certainly talk to her about {a film}, but she wouldn't be the one making the decision," she says.

Set five years after Chocolat, The Lollipop Shoes could take as many years to come to the big screen though.

"There is always so much interest in these things but I ignore it entirely until something happens," says Joanne.

"I don't want anyone to get excited about the possibility of a film of this because I know that these things take a long time. But if there's a film it would be nice, particularly if we could have the same cast."

And the new book isn't exactly a sequel to the first film, which also starred Johnny Depp and Alfred Molina, she says.

"To me, a sequel is more of the same and would have been set in the same place. This is a completely different scenario in many ways. They are in a different place."
