MAMMA MIA! 3 (2025) – Lily James, Amanda Seyfried and Meryl Streep
The third installment of Mamma Mia! continues the story of Sophie (Amanda Seyfried) as she successfully manages the Bella Donna Hotel. With her family and friends thriving on the island, Sophie begins to wonder about her own journey and whether she is destined to follow in her mother Donna’s (Meryl Streep) adventurous footsteps.
A shocking revelation comes when Sophie discovers an old letter from Donna, hinting at a long-lost family secret. The letter reveals that Donna once had a brief romance with a mysterious musician while traveling through Greece before meeting Sam, Bill, and Harry. Determined to uncover the truth, Sophie embarks on a journey across Europe, retracing her mother’s footsteps.
Lily James returns as young Donna in extensive flashbacks, revealing her passionate romance with the unknown musician, who may have had a lasting impact on her life. Meanwhile, Sophie’s journey leads her to a charming but reclusive artist (played by a new star addition), who may be the missing piece to Donna’s past.
As past and present collide, Sophie learns that life is about embracing the unknown, just as her mother did. The film climaxes with an emotional dream sequence where Donna (Meryl Streep) appears to Sophie, reassuring her that she is exactly where she needs to be.
With iconic ABBA hits like Super Trouper and If It Wasn’t for the Nights, Mamma Mia! 3 is a heartwarming, music-filled celebration of love, family, and self-discovery.
