Meryl Streep Could Be In "Jackass 3" And Make It Oscar-worthy

Meryl Streep Could Be In "Jackass 3" And Make It Oscar-worthy
It's hard to know if film adaptations of successful theater productions will be able to translate into the new medium. But if the participation of one of the most diverse and talented actresses of her time is any indication, the "Mamma Mia!" movie ain't gonna be too shabby. The Washington Post reports:

Meryl Streep will star in the movie version of the popular ABBA musical "Mamma Mia!" Theater veteran Phyllida Lloyd is in negotiations to make her feature directorial debut on the picture, which will be distributed by Universal Pictures. The story revolves around a bride-to-be and her formerly rebellious mom who raised her on a Greek island and never disclosed the identity of her father. The bride locates three men who might be her father and invites them to her wedding. Streep will play the mom.
What a wonderful combination of two things I adore: Meryl Streep and ABBA. It's like, there is a God.
