Amanda Seyfried Names Sabrina Carpenter and Sydney Sweeney for Potential 'Mamma Mia 3'

The project remains ungreenlit despite a finished script plus outreach to original cast.

Overview

  • At the Governors Awards, Seyfried told Entertainment Tonight she is "pretty sure" a third film will happen and floated Carpenter as Sophie's cousin with Sweeney joining the ensemble.
  • Producer Judy Craymer has confirmed a script exists, and Christine Baranski and Pierce Brosnan have said they met with her to discuss a possible return.
  • Seyfried outlined a vision that retains franchise staples, including the three dads, ABBA songs and a tropical setting, and she suggested Meryl Streep's Donna could appear in a nontraditional way.
  • Sydney Sweeney has previously said she would like to be part of the series, and she and Seyfried co-star in Paul Feig's The Housemaid due in theaters December 19.
  • Recent coverage highlights mixed fan reaction, with visible online pushback to Sweeney's potential involvement following controversies and box-office setbacks.
