Hollywood blockbuster movie Mamma Mia’s sequel underway

Los Angeles(May 22, 2017): It seems like it was just yesterday that Meryl Streep filmed her vacation to Greece, where she sang and danced though a wedding weekend with all of her closest friends.

At least, that’s what watching 2008’s Mamma Mia! The Movie feels like. And now, 10 years after the musical hit cineplexes, Universal is bringing everyone back for Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again!

A new film sequel to the classic Broadway show and yet another opportunity for Meryl Streep to spend two hours frolicking on the beach in overalls.

Per Deadline, Universal wants the original cast back for the sequel, which will feature more ABBA songs that weren’t in the original show. It’ll have a script by Ol Parker, who wrote The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, and former ABBA band members Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus are also on board to act as executive producers and music consultants.

The original movie starred Streep as the mother of Amanda Seyfried, who invites three of her mother‘s former lovers—Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth, and Stellan Skarsgård—to her wedding in order to find out who her father is.

The sequel could expand on that backstory, and perhaps provide some insight into the identity of the father, although that might defeat the message of the original: that family is something you can choose for yourself.
