Mara Wilson not interested in Mrs Doubtfire sequel
Mara Wilson has revealed she will not be reprising her childhood role in the Mrs Doubtfire sequel.
The former child actress, who was just 6-years-old when starred as the daughter Natalie Hillard in the 1993 hit film, has taken to Twitter to confirm that she won't be joining Robin Williams in the planned sequel.
26-year-old Wilson wrote: ''They haven't asked me to be in it, and I think it would be weird if they did! I don't act much and am not a cute little kid anymore.
''The only reason I've said I don't want to do it is because of the literal hundreds of people asking me about it.
''I loved being in 'Doubtfire', and I'm grateful every day I had that experience. I met my sister-for-life Lisa [Jakub] there. I had a great time.
''But I don't think a sequel makes sense plotwise, and I don't think there'd be a part for me even if I did still act and was interested.''
While the idea of a sequel has been in the pipeline since 2001, when Bonnie Hunt was enlisted to pen a script, Director Chris Columbus and Williams never felt any of the drafts by Hunt or other writers were strong enough.
The project came back to life again earlier this year when Elf writer David Berenbaum became involved.

'Mrs. Doubtfire' sequel in the works
Everyone's favorite '90s nanny may be suiting up again.
Fox 2000 is developing a sequel to Mrs. Doubtfire, with Robin Williams reprising his role as a divorced father who disguises himself as a Scottish nanny to spend more time with his children, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Chris Columbus, who helmed the first film, is also attached to direct, and Elf scribe David Berenbaum is writing the screenplay, THR reports.
Shows on the bubble: Which will survive?
Mrs. Doubtfire, which was released in 1993, won the Golden Globe for Best Comedy/ Musical, and also netted Williams a Globe for Best Actor.
There's been talk of a sequel since the early 2000s. Would you go see Mrs. Doubtfire 2?
