Actress Jada Pinkett Smith is confident that a sequel to her new comedy "Girls Trip" will be made following the movie's strong showing at the box office.

The film about four female friends who go on a weekend trip together to a New Orleans music festival has reviewed well and banked over USD 30 million in its opening weekend at the box office.

Jada is sure that Universal Pictures will reunite the cast, which also includes Regina Hall, Queen Latifah and Tiffany Haddish, for another outing, reported Contactmusic.

"We've talked about doing a sequel, so we'll see if it happens, but I think with the success of the movie it will happen," Jada says.
 

"It's just done USD 30 million at the weekend, so I'm so proud. They're saying that we've taken rated R comedies out of their slump so it's a nice moment for us for sure. The movie has a lot of heart and great messages about empowerment and living your truth so you get a little bit of everything," she adds.
