The writer of the commitments, Roddy Doyle, also wrote "The Snapper," which
some viewed as the sequel to "The Commitments." His third novel in the
series, whose name i can't remember, won the Booker prize last year. It's
something like "Paddy Clark, Ha Ha Ha." Anyway, an actual sequel to the
storyline has been in the works for a while and I think they actually started
filming it, but I haven't heard anything for a while.
