Producers have been working on bringing the stage production based on the music of Abba to theatres for more than a year. According to Daily Variety, Hanks and his production company, Playtone, have teamed with Bjorn Ulvaeus and Benny Anderson, former Abba members, to create the movie.
Featuring the songs of the popular 1970s band, the film is expected to be released to coincide with the 10th anniversary of the musical in London at the end of the year.
