Sister Act fans hold on and keep the faith! After years of anticipation, the beloved franchise is set to make a triumphant return with its third installment. Yes! Sister Act 3: Kicking the Habit is officially still on the way, and it’s shaping up to be a sequel worth the wait!
Whoopi Goldberg is stepping back in the habit, and this time, she’s got some major Hollywood firepower behind her. With Tyler Perry producing, and Disney+ as the sanctuary for its release, this sequel is in blessed hands. The team is still in hush mode about the plot. But trust and believe, if it’s anything like the first two movies, we’re in for another uplifting, hilarious, and music-filled ride.
Sister Act 3 has faced delays, particularly following the passing of Maggie Smith. While this will undoubtedly be a memorable movie in the Sister Act franchise, fans are feeling bittersweet over her loss. Smith played the no-nonsense but lovable Mother Superior. Her portrayal was nothing short of iconic. Her sharp wit and undeniable charm makes her an unforgettable part of the Sister Act legacy, and she will be deeply missed. But you can bet her spirit will live on in this long-awaited sequel.
Now let’s talk tea! Word on the street was that Bette Midler might be joining the fun, but it looks like The Divine Miss M is sitting this one out. Funny enough, in a 2023 interview with Variety, she revealed the wild reason she turned down the lead role in the original Sister Act. Whew chile! Now that’s a hot sip!
Speaking of star power, Whoopi herself teased the possibility of bringing in some fresh faces. Imagine Lizzo and Nicki Minaj shaking things up in the convent alongside Keke Palmer. Now, that’s a choir we’d all love to join!
Although there’s still no confirmed release date, don’t stop believing! With Whoopi leading the way and Hollywood heavyweights backing the project, Sister Act 3 is destined to be the musical-comedy revival we’ve been waiting for. So get ready to raise a joyful noise because when Sister Mary Clarence returns, you know it’s gonna be divine!
