Get ready to raise your voices, “Sister Act” fans! The iconic musical comedy franchise is set to make a triumphant return with a brand-new sequel. Whoopi Goldberg herself recently spilled some exciting details about the long-awaited “Sister Act 3” during an appearance on Good Morning America.
A Look Back at the “Sister Act” Phenomenon
The original “Sister Act” stormed onto screens in 1992, captivating audiences with its blend of humor, heart, and unforgettable music. Whoopi Goldberg starred as Deloris, a sassy lounge singer who finds herself in an unexpected situation – hiding in a convent under witness protection. As she tries to blend in, Deloris injects new life into the choir, creating a sensation that shakes up the quiet convent life.
The film’s success wasn’t just about laughs and music. It also offered a surprisingly positive portrayal of the Catholic faith. While there were moments of comedic friction between Deloris and the more traditional sisters, the film ultimately showed the power of community, forgiveness, and the uplifting spirit of music within the convent walls. Surrounding Whoopi Goldberg’s powerhouse performance was a stellar supporting cast. Maggie Smith brought a delightful dry wit to the role of the Reverend Mother Superior, while Kathy Najimy and Wendy Makkena shone as the endearingly awkward Sisters Mary Patrick and Mary Robert, respectively. The chemistry between the entire cast was undeniable, making “Sister Act” a heartwarming and hilarious experience.
Whoopi Promotes Her Memoir
As the interview begins, host George Stephanopoulos mentions Whoopi Goldberg’s new memoir, “Bits and Pieces: My Mother, My Brother and Me.” Whoopi describes the book as a love letter to her mom and brother, and shares how she cherishes the bond they shared.
