Loved the movie Book Club........here's a little something about the new movie with all the women. [View all]

You can thank Candice Bergen for "Book Club" going full Italiano.

Bergen started planning the next exotic chapter of the 2018 comedy − about four longtime friends whose lives are changed forever after reading "Fifty Shades of Grey" − from an airplane in Las Vegas while promoting the movie even before the release.

"We were saying, 'I think this movie's going to do OK − maybe we should do a sequel,' " Bergen recalls. "And I said, 'Yeah, and we should shoot the sequel in Italy.' It turns out, we did."

This second movie was sealed after "Book Club" rolled with an impressive $104 million at the box office worldwide. "Book Club: The Next Chapter" (in theaters) reunites Bergen with co-stars Jane Fonda, 85, Mary Steenburgen, 70, and Diane Keaton, 77, as the friends head for a long-delayed bachelorette party trip throughout Italy.
