Annie Murphy Wants a "Schitt's Creek" Movie, So Can We Make It Happen?

That's a little bit Alexis.

I'm sure all Schitt's Creek fans would agree that it has been a rather cheerless year without the Rose family.

The critically acclaimed show came to an end in 2020 and tore our hearts apart in the process (honestly, why should we be encumbered with such emotional cargo?). 

If you're not familiar with the show, you really should just go and watch it already. Created by father and son duo Dan and Eugene Levy, it follows a wealthy family who, after losing all their money, rebuild their lives in their only remaining asset: the small town of Schitt's Creek, which they'd bought as a joke. 

Eugene and Dan star as Johnny and David Rose, while comedy genius Catherine O'Hara plays the high-key dramatic Moira Rose, and Annie Murphy portrays daughter Alexis Rose. 

In fact, you've probably seen a bunch of TikTok users recreating Alexis' iconic "A Little Bit Alexis" dance.

With so many legendary moments and quotable lines, it's understandable why fans were devastated when the cast announced the show would end with Season 6. 

Well, it turns out Murphy is totally ready to revive her character for a film. Apparently the actress is even trying to bribe Dan to create one.

While promoting her new campaign with Tide, Murphy jokingly revealed to Us Weekly that she'd been sending Dan $US5 a day in the mail as a bribe. 

"So far, I have not heard back about a movie officially. But, oh, my God, I would be just over the moon if that ever came to pass because I miss everyone so much every day," she said.

According to Dan, the possibility isn't completely off the cards. Back in 2020, the co-creator shared with E! News that a film could happen sometime in the future. 

Well, I'm very keen to see Moira's wigs again, so can we hurry things up please?

At this stage, there's no real word on what a Schitt's Creek movie would be about, but we think exploring Alexis' past life would be a pretty great place to start.

Alternatively, they could just release The Crows Have Eyes III: The Crowening, so we can finally see the gothic masterpiece Moira starred in.

Schitt's Creek won a record-breaking nine Emmys in 2020, despite having been ignored by the Television Academy for its first five seasons. It rose to popularity after being added to Netflix in 2017. 

Well, I know how I'll react when a flick is finally confirmed:
