It's been, what, almost 10 years since the release of Mamma Mia! movie musical and it is still as relevant to me as it were released yesterday (and I did actually watch it yesterday). So it is no wonder that a sequel, Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, is in the works and will be ready for everyone to devour just around the first movie's 10th year anniversary.

Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again is directed by Ol Parker and stars Christine Baranski, Pierce Brosnan, Dominic Cooper, Colin Firth, Andy Garcia, Lily James, Amanda Seyfried, Stellan Skarsgård, Julie Walters, Cher, and Meryl Streep.
