Dominic Cooper will be singing a whole lot more in Mamma Mia 2
Dominic Cooper has teased what we can expect from the sequel to Mamma Mia, saying how he’s going to be singing a whole lot more.
Speaking to Metro.co.uk about returning for a sequel to the 2008 musical, Cooper revealed how he’s excited to reunite with the cast, less so with his vocal pipes.
Cooper said: ‘I’ve seen the script and I can’t believe it. 10 years later going back and I’ve got a dance rehearsal set up for next week which seems extraordinary. It feels so peculiar.‘I can’t wait. It was such a happy time living on a Greek Island and occasionally doing a bit of dancing and singing.
‘What will be intriguing is going back and seeing all the same faces and seeing where we’ve got to. It’s the same little family of people that you’re suddenly going back to after ten years. It’ll be funny.’
So is there going to be more singing from Dominic this time-around?
‘Yes there’s going to be more singing and I can’t believe they’ve allowed that to happen. It’s actually a really good song.
‘I was actually practising the other day just on my own. You’ll find out what it is if you just follow me around the street for long enough.’
As he can’t reveal which song he’d be taking on in the flick – which Abba track would he tackle at karaoke?
‘I don’t know what Abba song I’d do. The Winner Takes It All,’ he added.
Certified banger.
Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again is currently scheduled to be released in 2018.
