She’d like a part in Netflix’s upcomingTo All the Boys I’ve Loved Beforesequel, please and thanks. The actress took toInstagramto ask for the gig, writing: “If I can be an extra, please hit me up Netflix. You know, I do work for you already so that shouldn’t be an issue right there.” Obviously, this is a joke, and it’s unlikely that she’ll be popping-up in the follow-up film. But Brown definitely has Netflix connections, so you never know.Bad Boys 3, akaBad Boys 4 Life, is gearing up for production, and adding even more cast members.
