Lily James had a ton of fun playing a younger version of Meryl Streep’s Donna Sheridan in Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again. There have been rumblings of a third film over the last few years, but could a third be warranted? Judy Craymer, who produced the first two ABBA musical movies, feels it’s meant to be a trilogy and has said in the past that Universal Pictures would like her to make it.
Let’s not forget that ABBA released a new album a few months ago in Voyager, with their ABBAtars concert show set to kick off later on in 2022, their 50th anniversary year.
Perhaps some of the new music could feature in another movie, although Björn Ulvaeus has cast doubt on a threequel in the past.
Nevertheless, he said he’d be open to having a look if the idea was right.
Whatever the case, Pam and Tommy star Lily is game for Mamma Mia 3. However, there’s a big but.
The reporter affirmed that the fans “need it”, to which Lily replied: “Please! But only If I’m in it. They probably won’t have me. It’ll probably be like, Sophie’s baby. Anyway! Let’s stop talking about it.”
We’re up for it, just as long as Pierce Brosnan’s given another solo.
Pam & Tommy is streaming on Disney+.
