First "Mamma Mia!" PhotoPosted: September 2nd, 2007 by WorstPreviews.com Staff

USA Today posted the first picture of Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan from the upcoming big screen adaptation of the "Mamma Mia!" musical. The story is of a bride-to-be (Amanda Seyfried) trying to find her real father told using hit songs by the popular '70s group ABBA.
In addition to the picture, the paper also has an interesting article which talks about how the producers used Streep to attach other non-musical talents like Brosnan, Colin Firth and Stellan Skarsgard.
"[Streep] obviously loves singing and was bursting to do it with various projects," "Mamma Mia!" creator Judy Craymer says of the 14-time Oscar nominee who famously lost Evita to Madonna. "We knew that she had seen the show because she wrote a letter to the Broadway cast five years ago. Now she gets to sing nine ABBA songs."
Streep also plays disco diva with pals Julie Walters as fun-loving Rosie and Christine Baranski as naughty divorcée Tanya, who used to perform as Donna and the Dynamos. "These are great roles for people of a certain age," Craymer says. "We explore the relationship between Sam (Brosnan) and Donna a little more. There are no bounds on romance with Pierce Brosnan."
"When people ask me what I am doing next, and I say Mamma Mia!, a look of shock comes across their faces," said Brosnan on the first day of shooting on Skiathos in 100-degree heat. "Then they ask, 'Do you sing?' But so far, I've gotten away with it."
Craymer assures: "He sings brilliantly. He does a sexy Springsteen-style thing."
