Earlier this week we heard Pussy Riot’s Nadezhda Tolokonnikova and Maria Alyokhina were apparently headed to Cannes to chat with “Spring Breakers: Second Coming” director Jonas Akerlund and producers about having a role in the film.

It appears though that the Russian political activists were unaware of plans for their cameo in the Spring Breakers sequel. The members of the group immediately shot down the idea that they’ll appear in the sequel, with Pussy Riot’s PR firm issuing a statement this week:

                  “This news is ridiculous. It’s not true we’re in talks with ‘Spring Breakers’ producers and we have no plans to do that.”

The sequel has been gaining a lot of attention lately. Including via James Franco’s Instagram (surprise surprise). He took to the platform to blast the upcoming film as Harmony Korine, director of the original will not be involved in the new project.

Whatever and whoever Spring Breakers the sequel holds, it sure will be interesting.
