"Melissa McCarthy has said she is willing to appear in a Bridesmaids sequel. Speculation about a sequel was rampant in the months after Bridesmaids became one of the surprise hits of 2011, but both Jon Hamm and Chris O&amp;#039;Dowd have said a sequel is unlikely.  McCarthy appeared more positive about a potential Bridesmaids 2 when questioned earlier in the week by Hit Fix. &amp;quot;I would do anything...if [co-writers] Kristen [Wiig] and Annie [Mumolo] wrote something, if it was like, on the back of a napkin and they wanted me to perform it in the backyard, I would do it,&amp;quot; McCarthy joked. She then added: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ll let those ladies decide [if we&amp;#039;re doing a sequel].&amp;quot;  Wiig said in early 2012 that she had no plans to write Bridesmaids 2, although she stopped short of ruling out the idea entirely. Bridesmaids has earned over $288 million (\u00C2\u00A3183.4 million) at the worldwide box office, and garnered Wiig and Mumolo a &amp;#039;Best Writing (Original Screenplay) Oscar nomination. McCarthy also received an Oscar nod in the &amp;#039;Best Supporting Actress&amp;#039; category. Watch a trailer for Bridesmaids below:      "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
