Amanda Seyfried is enthusiastic about the possibility of a third installment in the Mamma Mia! franchise, despite no official confirmation yet.

In a recent interview, Seyfried expressed her hope for the film's development, noting that while speculation is rampant, she has not yet seen a script.

Seyfried mentioned pop star Sabrina Carpenter as a potential choice to play her character Sophie's daughter, especially after Carpenter's recent performance of the title track during her tour.

Despite a 13-year age difference, Seyfried emphasized that age should not be a barrier in casting, referencing the flexible age dynamics seen in the previous films.

Seyfried humorously stated she would be open to using old-age makeup to portray a more mature version of her character if Carpenter were cast as her daughter.

Christine Baranski and other original cast members, including Colin Firth and Pierce Brosnan, have expressed interest in returning for a new installment.

Meryl Streep has also indicated her willingness to return, suggesting creative ideas for her character's comeback, such as reincarnation or a twin sister plot twist.

Producer Judy Craymer confirmed that discussions for the third film are ongoing, with plans for a narrative plotline already in place.

Earlier this year, Craymer expressed interest in hiring Greta Gerwig as the director, following her successful work on the film Barbie.

The last film, Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, released in 2018, was a box office success, continuing the story of Sophie and her mother Donna.

Potential storylines for the new film may focus on the future of Donna and Sam or explore Lily James's portrayal of a younger Donna.

The Mamma Mia! franchise has been a global phenomenon, grossing over $4 billion at the box office and seen live by 65 million people worldwide.
