It was also announced that "Sister Act 3" will premiere on @DisneyPlus instead of a traditional theatrical release. Goldberg has been vocal about getting the original cast together for the "Sister Act 3" project, which she has been keen on for years.

In October, the actress revealed that she was previously reluctant to work on the project, but seeing fans' interest made her reconsider her stance. Perry had previously suggested a third "Sister Act" film starring Goldberg and Tiffany Haddish.

In 2018, Goldberg and Perry appeared on "Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen," and Perry revealed his desire to see Golberg in the movie.

"Sister Act 3" will not be Goldberg's first collaboration with Perry. "Sister Act 3" will be their fourth collaboration, with their last partnership being the 2018's "Nobody's Fool."

Since becoming a fan favorite in the 80s, Goldberg has remained one of the most accomplished actresses in Hollywood. Her career has seen her scoop some of the biggest awards in the industry.

Goldberg made history when she became the first female host of the Academy Awards in 1994. The actress remains an iconic star to her fans.
