Rob Lowe says a long-discussed “St. Elmo’s Fire” sequel is moving forward. During a Sunday appearance on “Watch What Happens Live,” he confirms it is “definitely in the works” and says there is a script in development.

Lowe adds that all of the main cast “want to do it,” and that they are supposed to receive a draft. While neither outlet provides release timing or production details, the update suggests momentum after years of fan speculation about whether the project would ever materialize.

Variety frames the news around Lowe’s direct confirmation that the sequel is underway and that a draft is expected, while ComingSoon.net emphasizes the excitement this may bring to fans by offering a clearer sense that the project is progressing. Both accounts rely on the same on-air comments and do not report new studio announcements or casting changes beyond the implication that the original actors are interested.
