Fans are full of joy after Sister Act 3 was officially confirmed to be heading to Disney Plus.
Whoopi Goldberg will be rocking her nun’s habit once again as we check in with the legend that is Deloris Wilson (aka Sister Mary Clarence) in the highly-anticipated sequel.
We last saw the 65-year-old character’s leading a choir during 1993’s Sister Act 2:Back in the Habit, and fans can’t wait to hear what beautiful music she creates with a new bunch of characters.
If this all wasn’t exciting enough, Tyler Perry has also signed on as a producer for the flick.
Here’s all the information we know about the threequel so far.
What is Sister Act 3 about?
In 2018, it was reported that Insecure co-EP Regina Hicks and Star showrunner Karin Gist were working on a script for a new Sister Act.
However, there’s been no update about that script and no real details shared about the proposed storyline just yet.
As you may remember, the original Sister Act saw Deloris give up her glittering job as a lounge singer and go into witness protection after witnessing a vicious murder.
Police bosses decided to place her in the last place anyone would expect her to be found – a strict convent where she is disguised as a nun.
Hilarity ensued as Deloris befriended many of her fellow nuns, helping to rearrange the choir to make them better singers – and gaining notoriety for their amazing gospel choir performances in the process.
Then the sequel saw Deloris work her magic on rowdy students at St. Francis Academy and transform them into an iconic choir.
Time will tell if the third film sees Deloris tranform yet another choir.
Who is in the cast of Sister Act 3?
So far, we know Whoopi will be reprising her role.
Earlier this year, she told James Cordon of The Late Late Show with James Cordon that she’s been ‘diligently’ working on trying to ‘get the gang back together’ for a Sister Act 3.
This appears to suggest that the Oscar-winner is trying to bring back at least some of the original cast.
A few cast members are no longer with us such as Mary Wickes, who played Sister Mary Lazarus, for example.
However, Harvey Keitel, Maggie Smith, and Kathy Najimy could be back as Vince LaRocca, Reverend Mother, and Sister Mary Patrick, respectively.
We’d personally love to see some of the Sister Act 2 cast make an appearance as well.
When will Sister Act 3 be released?
There is no release date just yet but we do know the film will debut on Disney Plus.
Sister Act 3 was just one of many new live-action movie projects announced by Disney during their Investor’s Day in a four-hour live-streamed webcast.
With the slight pause on new projects due to the pandemic, we’ll have to keep our eyes peeled for updates.
