The beginning of the musical series was the film directed by Phyllida Lloyd and starring Amanda Seyfried. Ten years later, a sequel directed by Olo Parker hit the screens. Both productions were well received by viewers, earning over a billion dollars together. In a recent interview, the director of the second part confessed that discussions on resuming the series are underway.
‘Mamma Mia’ Producer on Making Another Sequel The cast wants to return to the set
The media has been speculating for years about the creation of the third part of “Mamma Mia”. The producer of the musical, Judy Craymer, mentioned the continuation of the cult production with Swedish songs a few years ago. In an interview with The Daily Mail, she revealed that she had the idea to resume the series a long time ago, but the coronavirus pandemic effectively thwarted her plans. “I think one day there will be a third part, because from the beginning I wanted it to be a trilogy. And Universal would like me to make a third film – in conversation.
Equally positive about this idea were the actors playing in the previous parts of the musical. Amanda Seyfried, who plays the main character, Sophie, confessed that working in the company of such a cast is a pleasure and she is eager to return to the set of “Mamma Mia”.
Will there be a sequel to Mamma Mia? Ol Parker fueled the rumors
Everything indicates that the hopes of viewers for the resumption of the series are not in vain. The director of “Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again” gave an interview to the “Screen Rant” portal, in which he admitted that there are chances for another sequel.
Although he did not officially confirm the reports circulating in the media, he suggested that Craymer does not intend to stop at two productions in the series and it is possible that another part will be created that will close the cycle. Judy Craymer, the brilliant producer behind the musical and the first two films, had always planned a trilogy. That’s all I can say. (…) I know there is hunger for the third and I also know that she has a plan. Wouldn’t that be beautiful? said Ol Parker mysteriously.
