Amanda Seyfried says she would like to see motherhood as the next chapter for her Mama Mia! character when a third film goes into production.
The actress, 40, spoke at the Los Angeles premiere of Ann Lee’s will on December 14 when she shared her vision for Sophie’s future.
“Oh, with children,” Seyfried said when asked where Sophie should be in Mamma Mia 3. “I love being a mother. I love playing a mother, and I would love to explore the ins and outs of raising children on a Greek island, just like Donna did with Sophie.”
Meryl Streep played Sophie’s mother, Donna, in the original 2008 musical.
Seyfried said a storyline about Sophie growing older would be rich material, although the plot has not been confirmed.
“I have no idea where the story is going,” she said. “But I know there will be a lot of singing and dancing.”
The actress also said that she is excited about the sequel. “I’m going to keep campaigning for that movie until I’m blue in the face,” she said.
Producer Judy Craymer previously confirmed that there is a script for it Mamma Mia 3 is completed and that the film remains in development.
Off-screen, Seyfried shares daughter Nina, 8, and son Thomas, 5, with husband Thomas Sadoski.
