Amanda Seyfried shares prospects of her 'Mamma Mia' character if 'Mamma Mia 3' gets made

Amanda Seyfried reveals her hopes for Sophie's future in a potential 'Mamma Mia 3', envisioning her character embracing motherhood on a Greek island.

"I would love to dive into the curiosities of motherhood and raising children on a Greek island, just like Donna did with Sophie. - Amanda Seyfried"

Los Angeles, Dec 22

Hollywood actress Amanda Seyfried has shared her plans for her 'Mamma Mia' character. The actress feels that motherhood works for her character.

The actress attended the Los Angeles premiere of 'The Testament of Ann Lee'. The actress revealed what she envisions Sophie's life would be like if 'Mamma Mia 3' ever got made, reports 'People' magazine.

She told 'People', "Oh, with kids. I mean, I love being a mother," the 40-year-old mother of two kids said of her Mamma Mia! character and herself. I love playing a mother, and I would love to dive into the curiosities of motherhood and raising children on a Greek island, just like Donna did with Sophie".

Meryl Streep played Sophie's mom in the 2008 musical romantic comedy. The actress also spoke about a potential plotline of Sophie being a mother.

She said, "I think that would be really interesting. I have no idea where the story is going to go, but I know there's going to be a lot of singing and dancing. I'm going to keep campaigning for that movie until I'm blue in the face".

As per 'People', a script for 'Mamma Mia 3', which would serve as a follow-up to 2018's prequel-sequel 'Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again', has been completed and the film remains in development, according to producer Judy Craymer.

"Well, we know what we want to do with the movie, and it will happen", Craymer told Deadline in May while discussing pop star Sabrina Carpenter potentially joining the cast, presumably alongside Seyfried and Streep, 76.

Off-screen, Amanda Seyfried is well-versed in motherhood as she shares daughter Nina, 8, and son Thomas, 5, with husband Thomas Sadoski. Seyfried and Sadoski, 49, got engaged in 2016 and eloped in a private ceremony in 2017. They live on a farm with their kids.

Honestly, while I enjoy the movies, I hope the plot is stronger this time. The last one felt a bit stretched. But the music is always a winner. ABBA's songs have universal appeal, even here in India.

The concept of motherhood on a Greek island sounds so idyllic. It reminds me of our own Indian films where family and legacy are central themes. Hope Meryl Streep returns, she's iconic!

As a fan living in Mumbai, these movies are a great escape. The vibrant setting, the music, the drama—it's pure entertainment. A third film with the original cast would be fantastic.

I appreciate Amanda's enthusiasm, but I hope the filmmakers don't just rely on nostalgia. The story needs to feel fresh and genuine, not just a rehash of the previous plots with new characters.

My friends and I have dance parties to the Mamma Mia soundtrack! The news of a third movie is exciting. Sophie as a mom is a relatable progression. Hope they include some new ABBA tracks too!
