Possible fourth film

The possibility of a fourth film has been thrown around for years.^[8][9]

Lepa Brena was quoted in January 2013 as saying about the fourth film: "To me it's all a matter of willpower to create a story called Let's Fall in Love, Part 4. I'm waiting to finish a lot of stuff to get started on that film. A movie costs between one million and two million to make. The funds should be provided, as well as good actors, a good script and good music. I can say for now I really have the desire to do it."^[10][11]
