Mamma Mia!
News

Amanda Seyfried recently revealed that a sequel to the smash-hit musical adaptation Mama Mia! is already in the works.

"I've been talking to some insiders and it's not something that they haven't been working on. I don't actually know anything other than that," the Mean Girls star told the BBC in a bubbly, elusive manner.

Recently, Seyfried's co-star Colin Firth said that Abba founder Benny Andersson was not happy about the idea of more of the group's music being used for a second movie, but Seyfried seems optimistic: "I know it's still going to be Abba music, because what else would it be? Come on, I wouldn't do Mamma Mia 2 without Benny and Bjorn."

Seyfried recently starred in the Diablo Cody horror film Jennifer's Body opposite Megan Fox.

While most of the free world is watching The Dark Knight this weekend, those that prefer musicals to caped crusaders will be heading to the theater to see Mamma Mia!

Mamma Mia! is coming to the big screen on July 18.

Meryl Streep leads the cast of this remake of the Broadway musical. Does that make it a must-see? Let's find out what various critics think of the film...

- The most fun to be had at the movies this or any other recent summer... -- The Hollywood Reporter

- Helmer Lloyd's lack of vision and technical skills and the use of a conventional format result in an old-fashioned, mildly enjoyable musical that services but doesn't enhance the iconic Abba songs (and yes, Meryl Streep can sing)... -- Emanuel Levy

- Incredibly, Mamma Mia! looks set for a whole new lease on life... -- Boxoffice Magazine

- This joyous frolic propelled and inspired by the timeless music of ABBA is a bit like Grease for the older set, with Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan playing the leading roles... -- Urban Cinefile

Mamma Mia! is going from Broadway to the big screen.
