Mamma Mia! has broken so many records – highest-grossing musical ever, highest-grossing film in the history of UK cinema, most genuinely baffling box-office success in the history of time – that a sequel was always on the cards. Now, according to Amanda Seyfried, who played Sophie in the film, it's looking closer than ever.
"I've been talking to some insiders and it's not something that they haven't been working on," Seyfried told BBC News this weekend. Before any real work can start on a second Mamma Mia! film, however, a few problems need to be ironed out.
The first, obviously, is the punctuation to use in the film's title. Mamma Mia! 2 makes the most sense, but Mamma Mia 2! scans better. Then there's Mamma Mia 2!? which is probably the inflection all sensible people used when they first heard about the sequel. And then there's the problem of Pierce Brosnan's voice, though we can ignore that because nobody seemed to think it was much of a concern when they were making the first movie.
