Amanda Seyfried has shared a major update on “Mamma Mia! 3,” saying she strongly believes the long-awaited sequel will eventually happen, even though it has not yet been officially confirmed. Speaking recently, the actress—who played Sophie in the first two films—said she has a “gut feeling” the movie will be made.
According to reports, the third installment has been in development since early 2026, with producer Judy Craymer previously confirming that the script was completed in May 2025.
Despite this progress, the film has not yet received a formal green light, and key details such as cast and production timeline remain unclear. Seyfried has repeatedly expressed her enthusiasm for returning, even saying she would be upset if the film moved forward without her.
The actress has also shared ideas for the story, imagining Sophie as a mother raising her child on the Greek island—mirroring her own mother Donna’s journey. Meanwhile, original star Meryl Streep has also shown interest in returning, with playful suggestions about how her character could reappear despite earlier storylines.
Industry insiders say the biggest challenges remain aligning the schedules of the large ensemble cast and finalizing the story and music, including ABBA songs that would feature in the film. Still, growing excitement from both cast and fans continues to keep the project alive.
Overall, while “Mamma Mia! 3” is not officially confirmed yet, the latest comments from Amanda Seyfried suggest strong momentum behind the project—and a high احتمال (likelihood) that the beloved musical franchise will return.
