Whoopi Goldberg will read Sister Act 3 script this month
Whoopi Goldberg is set to read the script for 'Sister Act 3' very soon as fans await more news on the huge sequel.
Whoopi Goldberg will be reading the 'Sister Act 3' script very soon.
The 66-year-old actress is set to reprise her role as Delores - who became Sister Mary Clarence when she entered witness protection in the original 1992 classic - in the upcoming sequel written by Tyler Perry, and things are moving along at a steady pace.
Speaking to Collider, she revealed she is "waiting for a script at the end of the month".
Although she didn't offer any more details, all signs point to a script being finished over the next few weeks.
Her comments come after she recently claimed Disney was "lukewarm for the longest time" about making 'Sister Act' a trilogy, with the studio apparently claiming "nobody wanted to see it" before Perry came on board.
She explained: "They were sort of lukewarm for the longest time [about making the movie], they said nobody wanted to see it and then Tyler went in and said, ‘I want to see it.’ Next thing I knew, we were on. That’s the power of TP.”
She made the comments while Perry was a guest on 'The View' last month, and he gave his own promising update on the movie.
He added: "I love the idea of us making this happen but you know, the Hollywood system moves a little slower than I’d like to.
“So we’ve got a good script. We’re off to a great start. We’re just trying to get everybody moving in the right direction so we can get it going.”
Meanwhile, Whoopi is keen to work with Jenifer Lewis - who played Michelle in the original movie - again on the follow-up.
She previously said: "You know we’re still going to do that movie. And I’d do everything I can to work with her because she’s fun."
