Universal Pictures has officially confirmed that a third installment of the "Mamma Mia" film franchise is in development.

Langley is currently engaged in conversations with Judy Craymer, the producer of the original stage show and films, to move the project forward.
While a specific timeline for production has not been announced, the studio's enthusiasm for the franchise is evident. Langley emphasized that Meryl Streep, a pivotal figure in the series, would be welcomed back if she desires. The announcement follows years of fan anticipation and cast enthusiasm for a continuation of the ABBA-inspired musical saga.
"Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again," released eight years ago, was a significant commercial success, grossing over four times its budget. This financial performance has fueled speculation and desire for a third film. Cast members, including Pierce Brosnan and Amanda Seyfried, have repeatedly expressed their eagerness to reprise their roles. Even Meryl Streep has indicated openness to returning, despite her character's demise between the first two films.
