Stellan Skarsgard is pretty sure he'll be dead by the time Mamma Mia 3 comes around.
"I will be in an urn by the time there's a script for Mamma Mia 3," Skarsgard told Vogue. "But I will gladly participate as a pile of ashes."
The actor played Bill Anderson, one of Sophie's (Amanda Seyfried) three possible fathers in both Mamma Mia! and Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, who eventually falls in love with Donna's (Meryl Streep) friend Rosie Mulligan (Dame Julie Walters).
Earlier this year, producer Judy Craymer told Deadline that a script for a third film was "in its earliest stages" and that star Streep would definitely come back if "the script was right."
Streep told Vogue: "We might have to call it Grand-Mamma Mia! by the time we make it!"
Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, directed by OI Parker, was released ten years later in 2018. The film, which serves as both a prequel and a sequel, grossed over $400 million against a $75 million budget. There's no official word on when a third film will be released, but we'll definitely be here for it – and hopefully so will Stellan Skarsgard.
