Rumours continue to swirl about the future of the Mamma Mia! film franchise and a potential third film, especially now that it’s been nearly five years since we all took a trip to Kalokairi in Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again.
While there’s nothing official as of yet, Amanda Seyfried did admit: “There’s lots of talk.”
She also added, clearly joking: “I just don’t think Universal can afford us.”
Seyfried of course is one of the leads of the film as Sophie and has expressed interest in doing a third instalment of the beloved musical film.
As for what Abba song she’d most like to sing if the opportunity for a third film arose, she revealed: “I want to sing Mamma Mia. When Lily got to sing it with the girls, with Jessica and Alexa, I was like ‘I feel like there’s room in the third for me to get up there’. Some kind of dream sequence where I’m added in.
“Because I got to sing with the older girls, with the present day Dynamos, which was beautiful.”
Mamma Mia 2 movie cast included:
Released in 2018, serving as both a prequel and sequel to the 2008 film “Mamma Mia!” The movie features an ensemble cast of talented actors and musicians. Here are some of the main cast members:
- Amanda Seyfried as Sophie Sheridan: The lead character who is planning to reopen the hotel on the Greek island of Kalokairi and discovers more about her mother’s past.
- Lily James as Young Donna Sheridan: The younger version of Donna, Sophie’s mother, who is portrayed in flashbacks as she embarks on her own romantic adventures.
- Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth, and Stellan Skarsgård as Sam Carmichael, Harry Bright, and Bill Anderson: Sophie’s three possible fathers, reprising their roles from the first film.
- Christine Baranski and Julie Walters as Tanya Chesham-Leigh and Rosie Mulligan: Donna’s best friends and former bandmates, who provide comedic relief and support to Sophie.
- Cher as Ruby Sheridan: Sophie’s estranged grandmother and Donna’s mother, making a special appearance in the film.
- Dominic Cooper as Sky: Sophie’s fiancé and love interest, reprising his role from the first film.
- Andy Garcia as Fernando Cienfuegos: The hotel manager on the island and a love interest for Ruby Sheridan.
- Meryl Streep as Donna Sheridan: Sophie’s mother, who appears in flashbacks and dream sequences. Meryl Streep’s role in the sequel is more limited compared to the first film.
These are some of the prominent cast members of “Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again.” The film also features a talented ensemble of actors and dancers who bring the musical numbers to life.
As for the prospects of Mamma Mia 3, we’ll just have to wait and see. But Judy Cramer, the creator of the original musical and producer on both previous films, previously told Deadline that while there is nothing “official” to announce as of yet, she does have a story in mind and the project is in its “earliest stages”
As for now, fans of Seyfried can tune into her new series The Crowded Room on Apple TV+, where the first three episodes are now available to watch.
Seyfried stars as a “curious interrogator” named Rya Goodwin. And chatting about her relationship with Danny Sullivan, played by Tom Holland in the show, Seyfried says: “She’s trying to help lead him to the truth, the truth about what happened and why it happened, and what might be going on with him emotionally. And she does it with so much compassion and gentleness that it’s almost motherly, the relationship they have is almost mother-son, but it’s not quite that.
“She becomes very much like a support system for him and they develop this very loving relationship. You really feel like there’s this camaraderie, that they can get through anything together, regardless of the outcome of certain aspects of the show.”
She continued: “She gives him hope, she gives him somewhere to go, she gives him someone to trust, which didn’t exist for him for so long in his life, and everybody needs that.”
The series follows Danny, a young man who’s arrested following his involvement in a 1979 shooting in New York City. The series is told through a series of interviews with Seyfried’s Goodwin. But as Danny’s life story unfolds, it reveals “elements of the mysterious past that shaped him, and the twists and turns that will lead him to a life-altering revelation”, according to the synopsis.
