- Monaghan hopes for a 'Family Plan' trilogy after sequel success.
Actress Michelle Monaghan has prioritized family-friendly projects, noting her career previously lacked films her children could watch. This desire led her to "The Family Plan," which quickly became Apple TV's most-watched original film, prompting a sequel. Monaghan shared her experiences filming the sequel in London and Paris, often with her family joining her.
The "Family Plan" franchise, starring Mark Wahlberg and Monaghan, focuses on a family uncovering a former assassin's past.

She recently reunited with "Mission: Impossible" co-star Tom Cruise, expressing gratitude for his impact on her career.
Monaghan is eager for a potential "Family Plan" trilogy, citing positive audience reactions and her own fulfillment in making accessible movies. She also reflected on past collaborations, including working with Aaron Paul on "The Path" and her enduring friendship with "Mission: Impossible" co-star Rebecca Ferguson, with whom she shares a secret from "Mission: Impossible - Fallout."
