Meryl Streep leads an all-star cast in the
feature-film adaptation of the beloved musical that has been
seen by more than 30 million people in 160 cities and 8
languages around the world. Bringing the timeless lyrics and
melodies of iconic super group ABBA to movie audiences,
Summer 2008 is the season for Mamma Mia!
The three women who created the worldwide smash stage
hit—global producer Judy Craymer, writer Catherine Johnson
and director Phyllida Lloyd—repeat their roles in bringing
this joyful, musical story to the big screen. The Mamma Mia!
film is produced by Judy Craymer and Gary Goetzman.
Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth, Stellan Skarsgård, Christine
Baranski, Julie Walters, Amanda Seyfried and Dominic Cooper
join Streep in this celebration of a mother, a daughter and
three possible dads.
An independent, single mother who owns a small hotel on an
idyllic Greek island, Donna (Streep) is about to let go of
Sophie (Amanda Seyfried), the spirited daughter she’s raised
alone. For Sophie’s wedding, Donna has invited her two
lifelong best girlfriends—practical and no-nonsense Rosie
(Julie Walters) and wealthy, multi-divorcee Tanya (Christine
Baranski)—from her one-time backing band, Donna and the
Dynamos. But Sophie has secretly invited three guests of her
own.
On a quest to find the identity of her father to walk her
down the aisle, she brings back three men from Donna’s past
to the Mediterranean paradise they visited 20 years earlier.
Over 24 chaotic, magical hours, new love will bloom and old
romances will be rekindled on this lush island full of
possibilities.
Inspired by the storytelling magic of ABBA’s songs from
“Dancing Queen” and “S.O.S.” to “Money, Money, Money” and
“Take a Chance on Me,” Mamma Mia! is a celebration of
mothers and daughters, old friends and new family found.
