I though Cher was playing the grandmother in the flashback scenes.   But no, there she is all glamorous supposedly a generation older than Meryl, Walters, Brosnan and Skarsgard.   

 

Why didn't they get more Meryl for this?  Were they being cheap with her?  I can't believe it's because they hadn't much for her to do or she didn't want to do it again.

[La Binoche]

So did Meryl film any new scenes for this or are they just using flashback clips from the first movie?

She was probably super busy filming both Mary Poppins and The Post so the creatives decided to focus on a young Streep played by Lily James

They had 10 years to develop a sequel.  One would think the priority would be working around Streep's schedule.

They are really advertising the shit out of this during the Olympics. I had to double check to make sure it still wasn't coming out until July.

Can someone fix the title? It's "Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again" and not "Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again!" Use the exclamation right

Remember the first Mamma Mia is one of the biggest films of all time here in the U.K.

 

£68m. 

 

A total that even Infinity War might not get near.

Reminds me of this:

 

[TombRaider]

the chef poster is way worse. i swear that scarlett pic (the face only obviously) is from some movie premiere

[Jonwo]

That is one bad poster, it looks like everyone was shot separately and they stitched it together. The weird thing is that they have a much better poster that looks decent.

Trailer is tonight, probably during the Met Gala

 

 

[Jonwo]

 

looks okay but I wished they would have different songs, 

[Cap]

NGL, the first trailer was waaay better. 

 

This looks like a gay train wreck, and I Am Ready. They got me hook, line, and sinker when I heard the :15secs of Cher’s Fernando. 

[AJG]

So Streep is definitely dead? The film also looks like a thin plot stretched like hell. Interested in the reaction.

Good thing Universal has a new Dino pic this summer as this sequel will not be raking in the cash this summer.

TBH They're banking on it doing big business OS, Mamma Mia! 1 did $414m OS alone so I imagine they're betting it does $250-300m OS to make up for a much lower domestic take

This will drop hard domestically. WHO asked for this?

 

Enough people asked for it to the point where tickets are already on sale at my theater 2 and a half months in advance
