The fanbase for Karyn Kusama‘s 2009 horror movie Jennifer’s Body has grown a whole lot in recent years, with many reevaluating the film and realizing it’s got more going for it than it was given credit for back when it first came out. Megan Fox stars as Jennifer in the film, a newly possessed high school cheerleader who specializes in killing her male classmates, and now 15 years later it’s being viewed as a feminist revenge movie that was ahead of its time.

Jennifer’s Body writer Diablo Cody is back on the horror scene with the brand new movie Lisa Frankenstein this year – directed by Zelda Williams and releasing in theaters on February 9 – and Cody paid a visit to Bloody Disgusting’s Boo Crew Podcast this week to chat about the film.

The Boo Crew chatted with both Diablo Cody and Zelda Williams, and while the interview won’t be going live until the week of Lisa Frankenstein‘s theatrical release (stay tuned!), we are able to share a couple exciting snippets from the interview with you this week. For starters, Cody reflected on Jennifer’s Body, sharing her thoughts on the film’s years-later resurgence.

Cody tells the Boo Crew, “I mean it’s gotten progressively happier for me. At first I was like, I was excited about it obviously, but I was also a little bit salty because I remember thinking, well where was this audience when the movie came out. It was a critical, commercial failure. I was pretty humiliated to be perfectly honest with you. It was a rough experience having that movie come out. It was rough for me, it was rough for Megan [Fox]… [then] people started suddenly talking about it like it was a good movie, which I had thought all along.”

“At first I just thought, oh where was this audience when I needed it and then I realized they were like…seven,” Cody continues. “And then some people who maybe didn’t appreciate it at the time have come around and now I’m just like, there’s no saltiness, now I’m just happy.”

Even with the cult classic status that Jennifer’s Body has attained in recent years, we’ve never heard any rumblings about any sort of continuation. If given the opportunity, would Diablo Cody return to the movie’s universe for either a sequel or a television series?

“YES! I wanna do a sequel,” Cody excitedly admits. “I am not done with Jennifer’s Body. I just need to find… I need to partner with people who believe it in as much as I do and that hasn’t really happened yet. I need someone to believe in it who has a billion dollars.”

What’s next for Cody? She also reveals that she’s currently working on another horror script. “I have an unfinished one kicking around that I need to finish that I think is definitely THE most straight horror, like, overt, gore, scary thing I’ve ever written,” she teases. “I’m really proud of the concept and I just have to push myself across the finish line.”
