St. Elmo's FireDemi Moore reveals she met with studio about making
Published on April 20, 2026 EDT

The flames fanning a potential St. Elmo's Fire sequel are still burning, according to Demi Moore.

In an interview for her upcoming body horror film The Substance (out Sept. 20) at the Toronto International Film Festival, Moore tells Entertainment Weekly she's met with studio personnel to discuss potentially reprising her role in a sequel to the 1985 Brat Pack staple.

"I have had a couple of sit-down meetings, and I think it would be great if we can come up with a story that I think holds up," Moore explains when asked if she'd reprise her role as Jules. "Because you never want to diminish. I think, yes. For the most part, my understanding is that so far everyone is pretty much open and on board. We'll see, but, yes!"

When asked to clarify who she met with, Moore confirms that "the studio is the one that's driving" a push for the sequel to happen.

Earlier this year, industry reports suggested that Sony explored the idea of reuniting original cast members like Moore, Emilio Estevez, Rob Lowe, Andrew McCarthy, Judd Nelson, Ally Sheedy, and Mare Winningham. Lowe previously confirmed he'd met with the studio about the sequel as well.

EW has reached out to Sony representatives for comment.

Grossing nearly $38 million at the box office upon its original release, director Joel Schumacher's St. Elmo's Fire — about a group of college friends grappling with maturity and relationships after graduation — became a generational classic and a key entry in the Brat Pack series of films.

A select group of Brat Pack actors recently reunited to appear in McCarthy's Brats documentary, which explored the group's dynamic and the lasting impact of the moniker that stuck with them throughout the era.
