Tyler Perry has expressed his frustration with the slow progress of ‘Sister Act 3,’ a much-anticipated film he is working on with Whoopi Goldberg. The previous films in the franchise were a hit, with Whoopi delivering a memorable performance as a lounge singer disguised as a nun in a convent. Despite the announcement of the third installment in December 2020, the development process has been sluggish.
In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, Perry voiced his annoyance at the delay, stating that it has taken much longer than expected. While he is eager to see the movie come to fruition, he revealed that the decision to delay the film was not in his hands. The plot and release date of the movie are still under wraps.
During an appearance on ‘The View’ in September 2022, Perry mentioned that he had worked on a script for the movie. However, Disney was initially hesitant about making the film, believing that there was no audience interest in a third installment. It was Perry’s persistence that ultimately convinced Disney to move forward with the project, showcasing the power of television.
Goldberg recently extended an invitation to Sheryl Lee Ralph to join the cast of the film. Ralph, who starred in the second installment, was shocked by the offer. The current cast only includes Goldberg, and details about other actors are yet to be revealed.
In conclusion, the journey of ‘Sister Act 3’ has been marked by delays and challenges, but with the commitment of Tyler Perry and Whoopi Goldberg, the film is gradually moving forward. Stay tuned for more updates on the progress of this highly-anticipated movie.
