by

As a seasoned gamer who’s seen more movie adaptations than I care to count, I can confidently say that the news about a potential third Mamma Mia film has me all a-flutter! Growing up with the original, it was like a musical ray of sunshine in my otherwise pixelated life.

Mamma Mia star Christine Baranski has shared an exciting update on the anticipated third film.

Ever since the 2018 debut of “Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again,” fervent fans have been eagerly anticipating another installment in the musical franchise that draws inspiration from the timeless tunes of ABBA.

Baranski, the actress portraying Tanya Chesham-Leigh in the movies, has shared that she recently had a conversation with the mind behind Mamma Mia, Judy Craymer, about the potential storyline for the third installment.

“Judy Craymer and I were at our preferred hangout in London, where she’s been brainstorming ideas for ‘Mamma Mia 3’. She shared the basic outline of the story with me, but that’s all I can disclose,” she revealed to The Hollywood Reporter.

However, it’s not just a wishful thought like, “I hope it might occur!” Instead, Judy Craymer takes action to make things happen. She managed to bring about event number two, which was an extraordinary success. I have no doubt that Judy Craymer could reunite everyone again.

As a gaming enthusiast, let me tell you, there’s something magical about musical adaptations like ‘Mamma Mia’. It’s the kind of film that just lifts your spirits and brings joy to millions worldwide, including myself.

“Does it have a touch of simplicity and kitsch? That’s part of its appeal. Whenever I’m in Europe, I’m amazed by the number of young girls who want their picture taken with Tanya. It does give me a small concern that Tanya is their favorite character. However, we tend to be drawn towards characters like her, who exude a quick-witted and alluring charm.”

By October 2023, Craymer made it clear that a third film is indeed on the horizon; the question now is simply one of timing.

Meryl Streep, who portrays Donna Sheridan in the films, recently disclosed that she will engage in a conversation about the upcoming sequel.

As a passionate admirer, I expressed my intrigue to Deadline, stating, “I’m yet to grasp the details, but they’ve got an exciting concept up their sleeve. It’s marked in my planner, and I anticipate learning more about it soon.” I can’t hide my eagerness; I believe the public will appreciate it just as much as I do.

Amanda Seyfried, Pierce Brosnan, and Lily James have all expressed interest in working together again for another installment of the series.

Mamma Mia! is available to stream on Netflix.
