Whoopi Goldberg begs Maggie Smith to take part in a Sister Act 3

She is known for her starring role in the classic crime comedy film Sister Act and its sequel.

And Whoopi Goldberg, who will return to the screen for a third edition of the film after 30 years, urged her former co-star Dame Maggie Smith to reprise her role as well.

The actress and TV personality admitted that she “just can’t do it” with anyone other than Maggie taking on the role of Mother Superior while discussing the new film.

Speaking with Loose Women’s Judi Love in an interview on Friday, Whoopi was asked about plans for a third Sister Act, which Disney+ confirmed in 2020.

But something is still missing from the production, as it begged Maggie, who starred in the previous two movies, to come back for one last hurray.

She explained: ‘You know, one of the things I want to make sure I do while I’m here is… I want Maggie Smith to know that I have the role of Mother Superior for you. [Maggie]. Because I can’t do it with anyone but you.

‘So if you need me to come here [to England] and shoot and do what we have to do, we’ll do what you want us to do, but we don’t want to do it without you.”

“I’m liking the script, you know we’re all going to do what we have to do. I’m trying to get a director! she updated the star.

It’s not the first time that Whoopi, real nickname Caryn Elaine Johnson, has reached out to her former co-star, as she pleaded for the same thing while appearing on The One Show last year.

It’s not known why Maggie doesn’t seem interested in another film, but Whoopi sidestepped that the actress might be in trouble over traveling abroad when she confirmed that the set would be coming to the UK for Maggie.

The interview comes after The View presenter sparked a wave of controversy in recent weeks by doubling down on her previous Holocaust insults.

She recently repeated that the Holocaust was not about race, insisting the Nazis were “not killing racially” and repeating the argument that saw her suspended in February last year from her $8 million-a-year role as talk show host The view.

The Oscar-winning actress was suspended from The View in February for saying the Holocaust was not about race, but about “white-on-white” violence and “inhumanity of man to man,” and the interviewer was told beforehand not to talk about the talk show. .

However, Goldberg readily repeated his controversial comments, when he pointed out that the Nazis certainly believed the Holocaust was about race.

‘Yeah, but that’s the killer, isn’t it?’ she said The London Times.

The oppressor is telling you what you are. Why do you believe them? They are Nazis. Why believe what they are saying?

She said the Holocaust “wasn’t originally” about race.

Remember who they were killing first. They weren’t killing racially; they were physically killing. They were killing people they considered mentally deficient. And then they made this decision.
