Victoria Beckham has apparently cast doubt on rumours that a Spice Girls movie sequel is in the pipeline.

The 25th anniversary of Spice World is coming up, and there has been speculation about a follow up film to mark the milestone.

However, Beckham indicated that she doesn’t have any plans to join Mel C, Mel B, Geri Horner and Emma Bunton for another big screen outing.

According to Metro, she shared a story online about the movie rumours and said: “Has someone got something to tell me?!”

The mum-of-four apparently added a laughing emoji and a confused emoji to her message.

Spice World was released in 1997 and featured the Wannabe singers as themselves, as they went through a series of fictional events.

Earlier this month The Sun reported that the group had approached a screenwriter about a possible “tongue in cheek” follow up to mark the movie’s 25th anniversary next year.

Horner, Mel C, Mel B and Bunton were all said to be on board and keen to get Beckham to join them.

The pop star-turned-designer did not join the rest of the Spice Girls when they reunited to tour in 2019 and told German Vogue that it had taken courage to turn her bandmates down.

The tour was a huge success but Mel C later said “there was something missing” without Posh Spice there.
