]]> Fleabag writer and star Phoebe Waller-Bridge has just revealed that she is working on a feature film.

Since her multiple Emmy wins earlier this year, Waller-Bridge has been asked time and time again whether we can expect more episodes of the critically acclaimed Fleabag in the future. We were treated with just twelve episodes, but Waller-Bridge has repeatedly shut down hopes that another season is on the cards.

Fortunately, the brilliant writer is not shutting down her talents for good. In fact, she recently told US Vogue that she is currently at work on an exciting new project.

Typically, Waller-Bridge revealed nothing about the plot of the movie. What she did confirm, however, was that she would be working on it with her sister, Isobel Waller-Bridge, who worked on the Fleabag soundtrack.

“I’ve always loved the idea of starting with a sound and working backward,” she explained. “A lot of times, I’ll write something and go to her and say, ‘Can you score it?’ and with this one, she and I have been talking about the score before I’ve even finished the movie.”

She added: “It’s such an exciting story and it’s just been a thrill to work on.”

More details to be shared when they are announced.

]]> Do you want more Fleabag?

So do we!

Alas, creator — and three-time Emmy Award winner — Phoebe Waller-Bridge has shut down all talk of the British Comedy returning for a third season, despite Amazon Prime saying it would be more than keen to broadcast it.

“To be honest, this just feels like the most beautiful, beautiful way to say goodbye to it, actually,” the actress said of the show’s second season following her Emmy win.

Yet, there may be a glimmer of hope…

Whilst appearing on Late Night with Seth Myers, Waller-Bridge teased that we could possibly return to the quirky character in the future.

“I quite like the idea of coming back to her, well, me, when I’m 50. ‘Cause I feel like she would’ve had more life then, and God knows what she would have got up to,” said the 34-year-old. ”And actually, seeing a character like that in her later stage of life, I think, is exciting. But I think for now, she’s been through enough. We got to let her go.”

Let’s hope the next 16 years speed by!

The Fleabag star and creator was the big winner at the Primetime Emmy Awards on Sunday night when she walked away with an armful of statuettes.

The success of the series, which concluded with its second season, has prompted the producer, writer, and actress to sign an overall deal with Amazon.

“I’m insanely excited to be continuing my relationship with Amazon,” Waller-Bridge said in a statement. “Working with the team on Fleabag was the creative partnership dreams are made of. It really feels like home. I can’t wait to get going!”

Under the deal, Waller-Bridge will create and produce new television content for the studios that will stream exclusively on Amazon Prime Video.

In the meantime, the 34-year-old, who also created Killing Eve, is working on the screenplay for the upcoming Bond film, No Time to Die.

]]> The Primetime Emmy Awards could themselves have been nominated in the category of Outstanding Comedy this year.

Despite having no singular host, the ceremony was pulled off seamlessly by presenters who pulled out all the stops when it came to humor.

Cue Ben Stiller speaking about legend Bob Newhart as if he was dead, only for The Rescuers actor to point out that he is, very much, alive; Julia Louis-Dreyfus appearing on stage as her Veep character; and Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel explaining why award shows still need hosts.

And we haven’t even mentioned Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s speeches!

The Fleabag actress was the surprise winner of the evening, gracing the stage three times as she won Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series, Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series, and Outstanding Comedy Series.

Other big winners on the night were Chernobyl, the HBO miniseries about the 1986 disaster; and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel which took home awards for Tony Shalhoub and Alex Borstein. In an unexpected twist, Game of Thrones, which was the most-nominated show going in, only picked up two awards for Outstanding Drama Series and Supporting Actor for Peter Dinklage.

]]> One of Britain’s greatest and most underrated comedies is undoubtedly Fleabag.

Phoebe Waller-Bridge takes the audience into her confidence as she continuously breaks the fourth wall in the six-part series based on her one-woman play.

After a hugely successful first season, the Killing Eve creator brought back the series for a second — and final — season, in which Sherlock star Andrew Scott plays a major role.

The series earned 9 nominations for the upcoming Primetime Emmy Awards, including Outstanding Comedy Series and Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for Waller-Bridge.

Despite the actress explicitly saying she has no plans to continue with Fleabag, Amazon hopes she will change her mind…

“Nothing would make us happier than to have her bring another season of that show [to us], or anything else she wants to do,” network head Jennifer Salke said at the Television Critics Association press tour.

“I mean, I’m forever the optimist, so I remain always hopeful until it’s really over. So I’m hoping. I just am, like, basically [Phoebe’s] stalker. Anything Phoebe wants to do, we are signed up to do.”

Let’s hope she has a change of heart!
