'Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again' Trailer: Return To Greece With ABBA

If you ask me, using ABBA‘s already great songs for a musical is kind of cheat. But Universal didn’t ask me, and they did just fine with “Mamma Mia,” which earned $609 million worldwide a decade ago. Incidentally, that’s nearly $200 million more globally than the Best Picture-nominated “La La Land.”  But then again, that movie didn’t have ABBA songs. Anyway, the sequel, “Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again” is on the way and it aims to get you up and dancing all over again.

Directed by Ol Parker (“Imagine Me & You“) the movie will essentially give audiences the backstory to all the characters we met last time around. For those that adore this world, it’s probably music to their ears.
