Fans have been eagerly waiting for news about Mamma Mia 3 since the release of Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again in 2018. The burning question on everyone's minds is when they can expect to see Donna Sheridan and the gang again.

So, let's dive into all the information we have about the release date for this third part. Let's get started!

Mamma Mia 3 does not have an official release date at the time of this writing.

While Mamma Mia fans eagerly await news of the third movie, we're still in the dark about an official release date. However, we can certainly make some educated guesses.

Looking back at the previous two films, both were released in July. It's unlikely they would deviate from this successful formula.

So, it's safe to say that July 2023 is probably not on the cards—unless, of course, they've been secretly filming.

Historically, there's been about a year between the start of filming and the movie's release for the Mamma Mia! series. So, if production kicks off in 2023 for the third installment, a possible release date could be July 2024 or 2025.

But remember, these are just speculations for now. We'll need to wait for official confirmation of this part.

What Will Mamma Mia 3 Be About?

As for the plot, it's still a well-kept secret, but there are exciting possibilities. With the focus shifting away from the mother-daughter bond of Sophie and Donna, the story could delve into Sophie's relationship with her son, Donny.

Another intriguing avenue could be exploring the backstory of Sky, Sophie's husband, and Donny's father.

Amanda Seyfried, who initially seemed skeptical about a third installment, has since warmed up to the idea. While she's concerned about finding enough ABBA songs, she's leaning toward
"beyond yes."

You will see familiar faces like Dominic Cooper as Sophie's husband, Sky, Christine Baranski as Tanya, and Julie Walters as Rosie.

And, of course, what's a Mamma Mia movie without Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth, and Stellan Skarsgård as Sophie's three dads, Sam, Harry, and Bill? Brosnan's enthusiasm for a third movie is clear, and it seems the fun on set is irresistible.

As for Meryl Streep, who played Donna Sheridan, her character's storyline suggests she might not return, given that the older version of Donna passed away. Lily James, who portrayed the young Donna, might also be absent in a third film, except in flashbacks.

Ruby Sheridan, played by Cher, stepped in as Sophie's grandmother and Donna's mother in the second movie, so we can expect her to continue in that role, even if it involves some temporal leaps in the actresses' ages.

However, don't completely rule out Meryl Streep. A ghostly Donna made a surprise appearance at the end of Mamma Mia Here We Go Again, so she might still play a part in the afterlife.

Stellan Skarsgård is all on board for a third movie, and even his son, Alexander Skarsgård, expressed interest in joining the cast, particularly to work with Meryl Streep again.

Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again introduced these additional ABBA tracks:

"Andante, Andante"

"Kisses of Fire"
"Knowing Me, Knowing You"

"Why Did It Have to Be Me?"

As for potential songs in the third movie, it's anyone's guess at this stage. But with ABBA's extensive catalog, there's no shortage of timeless tunes to choose from.

And rest assured, Cher will likely be more than willing to belt out more ABBA hits for our enjoyment.

Conclusion

In conclusion, fans eagerly await news of Mamma Mia 3, but an official release date remains undisclosed. Considering the franchise's past July releases, a potential release in 2024 or 2025 seems possible.

While the plot remains a well-guarded secret, intriguing possibilities include exploring Sophie's relationship with her son, Donny, or delving into the backstory of Sky, Sophie's husband.

On the other hand, ABBA's timeless tunes will likely grace the soundtrack once more, promising a musical delight for fans when this part eventually hits theaters.
