Blake Lively: From Serena van der Woodsen to Action-Comedy Producer

Blake Lively’s career continues to soar, especially with her move into producing. Her highly anticipated film, *It Ends With Us*, has generated significant buzz, but her focus for 2025 is on a new slate of projects.

America Ferrera: Directorial Debut and Oscar Buzz Follow-Up

Following her Oscar-nominated, career-defining role in 2023’s *Barbie*, America Ferrera has cemented her status as one of Hollywood’s most sought-after talents. Her 2025 is focused on her transition behind the camera and high-profile voice work.

  • Literary Projects: Her writing projects remain a central focus, with recent work including poems about child-star actors, drawing on her own experiences in the industry.

The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 3: What Is the Latest Update?

The question of a third film, often referred to as *Sisterhood 3* or *Forever in Blue*, has been a constant topic of discussion since the 2008 sequel. The short answer in late 2025 is: a third movie has not been officially solidified, but the momentum is building.

The actresses themselves have been the primary source of hope. America Ferrera has repeatedly stated that a third installment is a "good idea," especially as the 20th anniversary of the original film approaches. The original film was released in 2005, meaning the 20-year milestone will be celebrated in 2025, a perfect window for a major announcement.

The stars have confirmed that the project has been "in development" or "teased" for years, but the biggest hurdle remains their incredibly busy, high-profile schedules. The fact that they are still very close—maintaining a vibrant group text chain and showing up for each other's professional and personal milestones—suggests the desire for a reunion is mutual. Their support for each other, from America Ferrera’s *Barbie* success to Blake Lively’s recent legal issues, is a strong indicator that the emotional foundation for a third film is rock solid.

Where Are the Supporting Cast Members Now?

The *Sisterhood* films introduced several other actors who have since become major stars. Their careers also provide great context for the era of the original films.

  • Lucy Hale (Effie Kaligaris): Lucy Hale played Lena’s younger sister in the second film. She went on to achieve massive fame as Aria Montgomery in the hit series *Pretty Little Liars* and starred in films like *Truth or Dare* and *Fantasy Island*.
  • Jesse Williams (Leo): Williams, who played Lena’s love interest Leo in the second film, is best known for his long-running role as Dr. Jackson Avery on the medical drama *Grey’s Anatomy*.
  • Mike Vogel (Eric Richman): Vogel played Bridget's love interest. He has since starred in various TV series, including *Under the Dome* and *The Brave*, and the film *The Help*.
  • Michael Rady (Kostas Dounas): Lena's Greek love interest. Rady has appeared in numerous TV shows, including *Melrose Place*, *The Mentalist*, and Hallmark Channel movies.
  • Leonardo Nam (Brian McBrian): Tibby’s co-worker and friend. Nam has had a successful career with roles in *Westworld* and *The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift*.
  • Jenna Boyd (Bailey Graffman): Boyd, who played the young girl Tibby befriended, has continued acting, notably in the Netflix series *Atypical*.

The collective success of the entire *Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants* cast, both core and supporting, highlights the talent pool of the original films. While the wait for *Sisterhood 3* continues, the ongoing careers of Lively, Ferrera, Bledel, and Tamblyn provide plenty of new and exciting projects for fans to follow in 2025 and beyond.
