A Third Mamma Mia! Movie Is In The Works

A third Mamma Mia! movie seems all but confirmed.

First starting as a stage show, Mamma Mia! originally came to the screen in 2008 before 2018 saw sequel Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again.

Now a third film looks to be officially on its way.

Christine Baranski, who plays Tanya in the two films, spilled: “I was in London with [producer] Judy Craymer at our favorite watering hole, she is planning Mamma Mia 3. She gave me the narrative plotline of how it’s going to happen.

“That’s all I can say! But, it’s not like, ‘Oh, I wish it could happen!’ Judy Craymer makes things happen. She made number two happen, and it was a phenomenal hit. I wouldn’t put it past Judy Craymer to get everybody back together.”

Craymer previously shared with the Daily Mail newspaper: “I think one day there will be another film, because there’s meant to be a trilogy, you see.”

She added: “I know Universal would like me to do it.”

Craymer also said she hoped to use four new ABBA songs written by Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus.

Meanwhile, in a recent interview with Deadline, Meryl Streep discussed her openness to making a comeback.

She shared: “I don’t know how they’re going to do it. They have an idea. I haven’t heard it yet but it’s in [my diary] and I’m going to hear about it pretty soon.

“Of course I want to do it. I think folks love it.”
