Elf casting director, Susie Farris, recently told PEOPLE she would "love to" work on a remake if one ever came to fruition, but it's unlikely to happen with Ferrell back in the famous tights.
"I've read that Will felt like he gave this character all that he could give it," Farris said. "I think if Will wanted to do a sequel, there would be a sequel. Creatively, I hope that he is very fulfilled in life, but I'd like him to do this."
