Streep Eyes Mamma Mia! Sequel

Veteran actress MERYL STREEP is keen to bring movie musical MAMMA MIA! back to the big screen for a second time - but only if movie bosses can "get those fabulous boys back".

Streep starred in the Abba-inspired summer (08) hit alongside Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth and Stellan Skarsgard - who all threw themselves into the singing and dancing roles.

And Streep would love to reunite the cast for a follow-up.

She says, "Grand Mamma Mia! I like it! I'm up for doing a sequel, as long as you can get those fabulous boys back! It's so gratifying it has been this phenomenon around the work. It says there's an audience for something that appeals to a lot of women, something that might make them some money too."

Movie musical Mamma Mia! has become a major box office smash internationally, grossing more than $559 million (GBP375 million) worldwide.
