It is learned that, Colin Firth is also eager to continue his role in the series as Mark.

"I've never made any declarations about what I would or wouldn't do ever, I never said I wouldn't come back for a third one (film). I imagined I wouldn't, a number of years ago I didn't feel there was a third one to be made," said Colin.

"It's like anything, you show me a decent script and if everyone's enthusiastic about it and back to do it again then it's possible". He added further.
