The possibility of a fourth film has been thrown around for years.
Lepa Brena was quoted in January 2013 as saying about the fourth film: "To me it's all a matter of willpower to create a story called ''Let's Fall in Love, Part 4''. I'm waiting to finish a lot of stuff to get started on that film. A movie costs between one million and two million to make. The funds should be provided, as well as good actors, a good script and good music. I can say for now I really have the desire to do it."
