Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again steps onto Blu-ray

Universal Pictures Home Entertainment has officially announced that it will release Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray and Blu-ray from on October 23rd.

Original cast members Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan, Amanda Seyfried, Colin Firth Julie Waters, Dominic Cooper and Christine Baranksi return alongside new additions Lily James and Andy Garcia. Ol Parker, writer of The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, writes and directs the sequel and is joined by original producers Judy Craymer and Gary Goetzman.

Both a prequel and a sequel, the film tells two stories: present day as Sophie Sheridan (Seyfried) prepares for the grand reopening of her mother Donna’s (Streep) hotel and 1979 when young Donna (James) first arrives on the island. Sophie learns about her mother’s exciting, fun-filled adventures with the young Dynamos, Tanya (Jessica Keenan-Wynn) and Rosie (Alexa Davies), and how young Donna first met her three possible dads Harry (Hugh Skinner), Bill (Josh Dylan) and Sam (Jeremy Irvine) all those years ago.

As you’d expect, the disc is full of special features, including enhanced sing-along versions of several classic ABBA songs.
