- Christine Baranski has revealed that co-star Stellan Skarsgård disliked filming the dancing scenes in Mamma Mia!.
- Skarsgård, known for Good Will Hunting and Dune: Part Two, struggled with the musical aspects of the film, Baranski said on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.
- Baranski recounted how Skarsgård would curse when asked to perform dance moves, comparing it to being asked "to read Arabic poetry while jumping rope".
- While Skarsgård expressed discomfort with singing and dancing, he ultimately participated in the scenes alongside co-stars Pierce Brosnan and Colin Firth.
- Brosnan “was game” and would “skip down the hill multiple times” while Firth “meant all of his moves ironically”, Baranski revealed.
