Is this confirmation that Meryl is actually in it then? Lots of rumours floating around that they'd killed Donna off. Assuming only the ones labelled as 'Young Donna' are sung by Lily

Arguments abound as to whether Donna (Meryl Streep) is now dead with the evidence suggesting she may very well be.
MS will definitely appear in the film but this coud be be in flashback scenes.
Be interesting to hear what Cher makes of Super Trouper.
Whatever can't wait for the release.

Talk about miscasting - Cher as Meryl Streep's mother - c'mon!

1)... 22 ABBA Songs have now been confirmed for Mamma Mia! 2. There may be a few others, that we don't yet know about.
A few were also in Mamma Mia! 1 - Dancing Queen, Mamma Mia, Super Trouper, I Have A Dream, Waterloo and Thank You For The Music.
The Name Of The Game is also in Film 2. It was Filmed for Film 1, & then cut out.
2)... ABBA Songs in Film 2 - that were not in Film 1 are:
I've Been Waiting For You, Fernando, When I Kissed The Teacher, Knowing Me, Knowing You, Why Did It Have To Be Me?, I Wonder (Departure), As Good As New, Angel Eyes, If It Wasn't For The Nights, Kisses Of Fire, On And On And On, One Of Us, Head Over Heels, Like An Angel Passing Through My Room and Summer Night City.
3)... Benny and Bjorn only finished working on the Mamma Mia! 2 Soundtrack on Friday 27th April.
The OCC banned the Soundtrack for Film 1 from the Main UK Album Chart. Instead, it was No.1 for 11 Weeks, in the Compilation Chart and No.1 for over 30 Weeks in the Soundtrack Chart. It has sold over 1,500,000 in the UK, so far.
However, this time it looks like they will let the Film 2 Soundtrack into the Main UK Album Chart. After all, they have allowed the Greatest Showman Soundtrack into it, & that was No.1 for 14 Weeks.
4)... I don't know where the World Premiere of Mamma Mia! 2 will be.
Its UK Premiere is in London on Monday July 16th. It opens across the UK on Friday July 20th. (Some say Friday July 27th).
If its World Premiere is in Sweden, (Stockholm), then that would pretty much guarantee that all 4 ABBA Members will attend. (Even if it is not in Sweden, ABBA are likely to attend its Swedish Premiere, anyhow).
5)... According to the 'Official' Mamma Mia! 2 Site, the Final Trailer for the Film is out tomorrow - Tuesday 8th May.
Hopefully, it will showcase more than yet more ABBA Songs from the 1st Film.
A lot of people don't know many ABBA Song & the Trailers are making them think that the 2nd Film is going to be nothing but Songs from Film 1, all over again! They have featured Waterloo, Mamma Mia, Dancing Queen and I Have A Dream. So, far we have had 3 or 4 Trailers & the only fresh ABBA Songs in them were Fernando and Angel Eyes. The rest have been ABBA Songs from Mamma Mia! 1. I really do think that a better job should have been done with the Trailers and the ABBA Songs featured in them...
6)... We'll see how well the DVD of Film 2 sells, when it is released in November, or so.
The DVD for Film 1 sold almost 1,670,000 UK copies, in 1 Day, in November 2008. By the end of that 1st Week, its UK Sales were over 3,200,000. It has sold around 5,500,000 UK copies, to date. It sold over 2,250,000 copies in the USA, on Day 1.

With I Wonder, One Of Us and As Good As New not included in the original film and sung in this by Donna this surely confirms that Meryl Streep is defintely in it.

I'm told that the UK Premiere of 'Mamma Mia! 2' is also its World Premiere.
It is at the Eventim Apollo, in Hammersmith, London, on Monday 16th July.
The Eventim Apollo has a mixed, (seating & standing), capacity of around 3,500. It has a capacity of 5,000, if everyone is standing.

It's probably just me, but I don't see the attraction of a whole album of other people (who mostly can't sing) covering Abba classics. But no doubt, like the soundtrack to the first film, it will be hugely successful ~ me, I'll stick with the Abba originals.

I think my favourite quote at the time came from the late Roger Moore: "Pierce Brosnan's singing should have been used in his Bond movies as it is such an effective weapon his enemies would have surrendered on the spot rather than prolong the torture".

Universal have released the Video Clip of 'When I Kissed The Teacher' from 'Mamma Mia! 2'.
As you can hear, the lyrics have been changed in parts. Also, the Teacher is no longer a Male. They now have a Female as the Teacher.
The routines in the Video, show that a lot of thought has gone into the staging of the Song. The Film will have no problem to be huge, if the rest of it looks as spectacular - and fun.
People will love the 'Fresh' ABBA Songs in it, as they are strong, but nowhere near as well known as the 19 Tracks on 'ABBA Gold'.
After all - the 4 or 5 Trailers for the Film made it look like nearly all of the Songs were being repeated from the 1st 'Mamma Mia!' Film. Only 'Fernando' and 'Angel Eyes' were 'Fresh' in the Trailers.

I wonder why Teacher was never a single release.
It was rare for Abba to record a video for a track not intended as a single.

I cannot stand the original film so not in the slightest but interested in the sequel which im sure will be massive. I like abba but the first film is so utterly terrible.

Meryl is probably only going to be shown as a 'Flashback', as an Adult. In her younger days Lily James will be playing her. Unlike Meryl, Lily can actually sing...
I hear that ABBA's answer to 'Auld Lang Syne' is also in the Film - 'The Way Old Friends Do'.
ABBA performed it on their 1979 Tour. It later became a Track on 'Super Trouper' in 1980.
Here are ABBA performing it at Wembley, London, in 1979:
