“I also just want to do Baby Driver 2,” she said, after dismissing any current plans for Mamma Mia 3. “That’s what I’m hoping for…I’m just praying for it,” she said.

When asked if she has any ideas or knowledge about a potential plot, she responded: “I think Edgar [Wright – Baby Driver writer-director] has”.
