PASADENA, CALIF. (AP) - The producer of “Bridesmaids” says he needs a good idea first before considering a sequel.

That doesn’t mean Judd Apatow is against the idea. The film with Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph and Melissa McCarthy was a comedy hit last summer is up for a Golden Globe award on Sunday.

Apatow said Friday that the danger of agreeing to a sequel without being committed to a good idea “usually leads to `Jaws 3-D.’”

He says everyone involved in the project agrees that moving forward just to get a raise is not a good reason to do a movie.
