On the carpet, Hugh responded to those comments.

Michelle told Variety this week that she would do “another one of those in a heartbeat” in response to talk about a Greatest Showman sequel. She added, “That movie brought so much joy to so many people and to make people that happy, man that is a worthwhile thing to spend your time doing.”

Hugh jokingly told People, “Listen, if you know anything about my filmography, you’d know I’m totally against sequels in every shape or form. No more than nine films!”

He added, “I’m always open, if they come up with a good idea. Yeah, I’m open!”
