Graeme O'Neil takes a look at Kathy Najimy's appearance during the "Sister Act 2" reunion on "The View", where she fuels speculation she will not be part of "Sister Act 3".
I’m so glad you’re staying on top of this story… i’ve watched several of your videos covering this situation & I think you’re the only one who’s touched on this! when Whoopie‘s been on late night and been in interviews recently, no one has even asked her?!?
Whoopi and Kathy are very close Kathy has known Whoopi since her daughter was 4 before she was famous lol I wouldnt be surprised if this was a joke for them to trend 😂
What the Hell did Kathy do? Either she got too much attention & Whoopie resented it or she did something "Bad" back in the Day & Whoopie is holding a grudge. Or it's like the Oprah Beef that never actually Existed.
That first interview was quite a while ago. Their body language screams 'falling out'.... especially in the recent interview when she points out she's known Whoppie's daughter since she was 4. I wonder what the heck happened.
I think they are more interested in making a film similar to the second one than the first. As we all know in the second one it was more about Delores and the kids and all the nunns took a back seat. I have a feeling it will be the same there. A new group of kids, Dolores dressed as a nunn and other nunns in the background. I'm sad for Kathy because she brought so much to the first film. It's not cool of Woopi, well at least Kathy still have the Hocus Pocus Franchise and King of the Hill revival...
According to IMDb, Kathy is in Sister Act 3. I figured she must be in Sister Act 3 since she was at the recent reunion show that aired, sitting next to Whoopi and smiling away. We'll see!
The 2 Marys (Patrick's, Roberts) MUST also appear in Sister Act 3!!! I could probably do without Maggie Smith even if I love her. But these two were the heart and soul of the film series
I don’t think Kathy wants to make a promise that she’ll be in it without confirmation…. I know Whoppi loves her…. Hello they clicked when questions were pointed at Alex…… I think we’re just over reading things
SISTER MARY WAS MY FAVOURITE!!!! ILOOKED FORWARD TO HER SCENES....how could they even think of doing another SISTER ACT without her....her role was crucial in the success of SISTER ACT1 and 2.. so.. .BRING BACK SISTER MARY... I need to hear that HIGH C😂😂😂LOVE HER.. SHE'S HILARIOUS!!!!!
The fact this is even an issue tells me how far Whoopi has been consumed by her own self-importance. I loved and respected her as a comedian, as an actress, as an advocate for social causes, and as, what she once portrayed herself as, a person. Now, she's just turned into my mother and I truly can't be bothered with her any more. Life is too short to wait for the change you know will never come. All we can do is lament in the moment and quickly move on to the next potential disappointment...
What's going on with kathy? She needs to be a part of part 3. She was making the movie memorable as well with her voice. She was also great on King of the Hill as Peggy Hill
Kathy used to complain bitterly about having to dress up as a nun. I kinda wonder if Whoopi took offense at some point. I remember that View appearance from a couple years ago. Big, unspoken passive agression going on there.
Honestly it appears we are reading too much into her possibly not being in the third film. Once everything is finalized is when we will know who and who is not in it. Whatever is best for the story is most important. 🤞
I so hate when there's a part 2 or 3 without the full cast. The full cast is one of the reasons why people want to watch again. Why would they leave Kathy N out? It just doesn't make any sense. 😡
Could be for many reasons but I agree. Woopi body language when Kathy speaks about Sister Act 3 says it all. Who knows maybe Woopi is angry that Kathy did not offer her a cameo part in Hocus Pocus 2 ? I honestly would not be surprised actually lol
I think people are expecting a linear continuation of the previous cast but it seems like they are doing a completely new story I think even Whoopi will probably have more of a supporting role this time even though her name is the big one attached to the movie. We may see cameos from some of the other past cast mates but I don’t think they will be written into anything significant.
If I was Kathy and Whoopi asked her after being snubbed the first time I’d be like nope I ain’t doing it sorry but not sorry. I’m if I’m not good enough to be in your movie and not asked I’d be like hell no!
I don't think Whoopi has secured Maggie Smith yet. If Maggie declined, I could totally understand taking the story in a new direction. All or nothing when it comes to the nuns still with us. (I don't necessarily agree, but it makes sense.)
She has to be in the 3rd one or we'll riot. For all we know, they've made up since Kathy's first appearance on The View and now she's just trolling us.
I love Whoopi, but this seems so shady!! If Kathy is not in 3, it won’t be worth watching. How do you not invite back one of the main characters? I don’t know what the tension is, but now I don’t want to see it on the strength of this situation. I can live on just 1 & 2.
There is NO reason why Sister Mary Patrick and Roberts shouldn't be there. Of course Maggie Smith should be there too, but pushing 90, that's more understandable. So disappointing!!
It will be just Fine if she doesn't show up. They can write her out and say she's at another Parish Or Church outside of the U.S. to help Orphans or something. Just choose an Actress who is beloved to play a Replacement. She was talking the same way about Hocus Pocus. I think she's done with the 2 Roles that really made her Famous without them she would not have done My Big Fat Greek Wedding 1 & 2. She is really known for 3 Big Movies.
I think maybe we're going to focus on sister Mary Clarence's mission throughout the majority of the movie, then at some point she will need the help of her sisters. They may want it to be a surprise? They can't leave her out
Why invite Kathy to the 30th anniversary show if Whoopi wasn't going to invite Kathy to be in the 3rd movie? it would be awkward scene. If Kathy isn't going to be in the next movie, they should have just excluded her from this reunion with a lame "scheduling conflict" line.
She should be grateful if she misses this. This sequel is a terrible idea. The second film was full of good intentions but utterly devoid of the original movie's spirit.
Sister Mary Patrick is a MUST on Sister Act 3.
That's a betrayal from Whoopi, ESPECIALLY because Kathy said that she's known Whoopi long before sister act. Very sad. We want KATHY IN IT!!!
It can't be sister act 3 without the original cast they were the reason we enjoyed sister act 1 and 2
It doesn't make sense why they aren't putting her in the movie. Even for a cameo.
Love Kathy, she needs to be in this.
Love of all the original cast so please bring back Kathy. She was hilarious 😂 and an audience pleaser so I'm not the only one who wants her back
Oohh my God .... without her i cannot enjoy sister act...am soo sad...we love her soo much...all the way from Tanzanian
I honestly just need all 4 of the main cast. Whoopi, Maggie, Kathy, and Wendy.
put her in it!
I’m so glad you’re staying on top of this story… i’ve watched several of your videos covering this situation & I think you’re the only one who’s touched on this! when Whoopie‘s been on late night and been in interviews recently, no one has even asked her?!?
omg me too!
Whoopi and Kathy are very close
Kathy has known Whoopi since her daughter was 4 before she was famous lol
I wouldnt be surprised if this was a joke for them to trend 😂
She’ll be in sister act 3. It wouldn’t be the same without Kathy Najimy.
Kathy needs to be in Sister Act 3. She was a big part of the first two!
I hope she's in it. She's one of my faves in the movie
Kathy needs to be involved in 3. It’s strange and sad what’s going on. Wish I could understand
She might not be a Holiday A lister but she does have name recognition, I'm surprised the studio isnt saying she needs to be in the movie
They can’t have sister act 3 with out all the sisters the chemistry between the 3 of them make the movie that what where waiting for.
Kathy is so sweet!
What the Hell did Kathy do? Either she got too much attention & Whoopie resented it or she did something "Bad" back in the Day & Whoopie is holding a grudge. Or it's like the Oprah Beef that never actually Existed.
Shall we start a petition?
That first interview was quite a while ago. Their body language screams 'falling out'.... especially in the recent interview when she points out she's known Whoppie's daughter since she was 4. I wonder what the heck happened.
i just don’t understand the Reasoning behind leaving her out 🤷
I think they are more interested in making a film similar to the second one than the first. As we all know in the second one it was more about Delores and the kids and all the nunns took a back seat. I have a feeling it will be the same there. A new group of kids, Dolores dressed as a nunn and other nunns in the background. I'm sad for Kathy because she brought so much to the first film. It's not cool of Woopi, well at least Kathy still have the Hocus Pocus Franchise and King of the Hill revival...
Y’all lost me with Keke Palmer
According to IMDb, Kathy is in Sister Act 3. I figured she must be in Sister Act 3 since she was at the recent reunion show that aired, sitting next to Whoopi and smiling away. We'll see!
For shame on Whoopi. 💔 Poor Kathy.
The 2 Marys (Patrick's, Roberts) MUST also appear in Sister Act 3!!! I could probably do without Maggie Smith even if I love her. But these two were the heart and soul of the film series
I don’t think Kathy wants to make a promise that she’ll be in it without confirmation…. I know Whoppi loves her…. Hello they clicked when questions were pointed at Alex…… I think we’re just over reading things
Exactly . This dude is reaching
Damn it all to hell how did I miss this my god I thought the 2 others would be in it for sure but after seeing this video wow mind blown
Yes I so,so,so want Kathy in it.I think they will be making a mistake if they leave her out!
That is SO WRONG to leave Kathy out of sister act 3!!!
I mean. She's listed on the IMDB page for the new movie. Along with Whoopi, Wendy, Keke and Jenifer.
I was just going to mention that. I think she's in it, but probably still negotiating pay.
I think we may be overanalyzing. I'm cautiously optimistic.
She's been asking everybody to be in 3, why in the world would she not include the originals, that would be stupid.
It's gotta be Disney. Kathy and Whoopi still show love
SISTER MARY WAS MY FAVOURITE!!!! ILOOKED FORWARD TO HER SCENES....how could they even think of doing another SISTER ACT without her....her role was crucial in the success of SISTER ACT1 and 2.. so.. .BRING BACK SISTER MARY... I need to hear that HIGH C😂😂😂LOVE HER.. SHE'S HILARIOUS!!!!!
I really think the whole Kathy not being asked is staged to get more hype for the movie and then when it’s released she’ll pop up in the movie.
Oh no. That would be horrible. How can they leave her out 😢. It just won't be the same. She does look dejected
The fact this is even an issue tells me how far Whoopi has been consumed by her own self-importance. I loved and respected her as a comedian, as an actress, as an advocate for social causes, and as, what she once portrayed herself as, a person. Now, she's just turned into my mother and I truly can't be bothered with her any more. Life is too short to wait for the change you know will never come. All we can do is lament in the moment and quickly move on to the next potential disappointment...
How all of the nuns came back for part 2 . I want all of the students to come back for 3.
She was a huge part of the success of 1 & 2. I found it very strange she was snubbed.
What's going on with kathy? She needs to be a part of part 3. She was making the movie memorable as well with her voice. She was also great on King of the Hill as Peggy Hill
but on the sister acts and kathys imdb page it listed her as a cast member so idk but i hope to see her in there
Just LOVE LOVE LOVE SISTER ACT!
I think Whoopi is Jealous of or thinks Kathy will Steal her Thunder!
Why wouldn't they put Kathy on for act 3? That just doesn't make any sense.
Her name is on the imdb page though.
Kathy used to complain bitterly about having to dress up as a nun. I kinda wonder if Whoopi took offense at some point. I remember that View appearance from a couple years ago. Big, unspoken passive agression going on there.
Well, Tyler Perry is involved, so she should consider herself lucky not to be in it.
The new movie will be a bust without Kathy. She is part of the reason why Sister Act 1+2 became so memorable.
Kathy stole rhe show in Sister Act 1 & 2, maybe that's why Whoppi doesn't want her!
Maybe she wanted too much money and they couldn’t agree on it? 🤷🏼♂️
This is what I think
Yes Sister Act Three Sister Act Three Sister Act Three!
Kathy is in 3.
Honestly it appears we are reading too much into her possibly not being in the third film. Once everything is finalized is when we will know who and who is not in it. Whatever is best for the story is most important. 🤞
I so hate when there's a part 2 or 3 without the full cast. The full cast is one of the reasons why people want to watch again. Why would they leave Kathy N out? It just doesn't make any sense. 😡
Whoopi won't be hiring Kathy Najimy
Why 😢
Could be for many reasons but I agree. Woopi body language when Kathy speaks about Sister Act 3 says it all. Who knows maybe Woopi is angry that Kathy did not offer her a cameo part in Hocus Pocus 2 ? I honestly would not be surprised actually lol
I saw this cant see whoopi the same anymore that was low i felt so bad awkward for kathy
Why would Sheryl Lee Ralph need to return if Lauryn isn’t returning to Act 3?
LOL $$$
I doubt she would not be in it. They are life long friends
If Wendy, Kathy and Maggie aren’t in it, I will be very disappointed. It wouldn’t be sister act without them.
Soooooo of Kathy is NOT going to be in Sister Act #3 6 they say why ??? Probably not ...
I hope Kathy Jajimy is in SA3, if not unlikely to watch it.
Oh sister thou art not being honest with thy self are we huh huh ?❤
If she ain't in it i ain't watching it. Period
She should be in 3!
Why wouldnt Whoopi include the other surviving nun sidekicks?
We need Whoopi to know we wont be happy with this next one if shes not in it
I think people are expecting a linear continuation of the previous cast but it seems like they are doing a completely new story I think even Whoopi will probably have more of a supporting role this time even though her name is the big one attached to the movie. We may see cameos from some of the other past cast mates but I don’t think they will be written into anything significant.
If I was Kathy and Whoopi asked her after being snubbed the first time I’d be like nope I ain’t doing it sorry but not sorry. I’m if I’m not good enough to be in your movie and not asked I’d be like hell no!
Whoopi is maybe not soooo nice - why would you not keep the old actors in. They are the reason people want a Sister Act 3
What a disgrace
At least a scene...
Well at least we got to see her in the Hocus Pocus sequel.
If Kathy is out, I´m out...
They’re close friends
Ouch
I don't think Whoopi has secured Maggie Smith yet. If Maggie declined, I could totally understand taking the story in a new direction. All or nothing when it comes to the nuns still with us. (I don't necessarily agree, but it makes sense.)
She has to be in the 3rd one or we'll riot. For all we know, they've made up since Kathy's first appearance on The View and now she's just trolling us.
so her contract negotiation fell through?
I love Whoopi, but this seems so shady!! If Kathy is not in 3, it won’t be worth watching. How do you not invite back one of the main characters? I don’t know what the tension is, but now I don’t want to see it on the strength of this situation. I can live on just 1 & 2.
So is this another case of Debra Messing and Megan Mullay falling out?
Kathy Najimy deserves so much better than that! Awful. 😡😡😡
I just want it to happen! King of the Hill also
Whags the real.T? Sounds like Tyler is behind it too.
I NEED Kathy in the movie.
There is NO reason why Sister Mary Patrick and Roberts shouldn't be there. Of course Maggie Smith should be there too, but pushing 90, that's more understandable. So disappointing!!
Again, if she is not in it, im not watching it .
Will be the biggest exercise in woke ideals weve ever seen.
why though?
She definitely coming back her and whoopi are friends 😂😂😂😂 so she be in there most definitely
I ❤Kathy Najimy, she needs to be in it!! I'm hoping its not because she not plus size anymore. Food for thought???
It will be just Fine if she doesn't show up. They can write her out and say she's at another Parish Or Church outside of the U.S. to help Orphans or something. Just choose an Actress who is beloved to play a Replacement. She was talking the same way about Hocus Pocus. I think she's done with the 2 Roles that really made her Famous without them she would not have done My Big Fat Greek Wedding 1 & 2. She is really known for 3 Big Movies.
No Kathy in Sister Act 3 then it’s nit a Sister Act….what kind of friend is that?
BRING HER BACK!’ WTF??
It Has to be Disney thats stopping it. I dont see Whoopis hand in this actually
I think maybe we're going to focus on sister Mary Clarence's mission throughout the majority of the movie, then at some point she will need the help of her sisters. They may want it to be a surprise? They can't leave her out
I mean, to be fair “Sister Mary Clarence” doesn’t exist without the other sisters. Without them, she is Delores Van Cartier, Vegas headliner.
@@therealameliabedelia7821 LOL you are absolutely right, my friend.
Why invite Kathy to the 30th anniversary show if Whoopi wasn't going to invite Kathy to be in the 3rd movie? it would be awkward scene. If Kathy isn't going to be in the next movie, they should have just excluded her from this reunion with a lame "scheduling conflict" line.
She should be grateful if she misses this. This sequel is a terrible idea. The second film was full of good intentions but utterly devoid of the original movie's spirit.
Sister act 3?...no, just no.
It should've been made YEARS ago.
Well Kathy was my fav in the entire movie… sorry 🤷🏻♂️ ❤
No Nikki or Lizzo.
