Whoopi Goldberg pays tribute to late Sister Act costar Maggie Smith: ‘A brilliant actress’

“I still can’t believe I was lucky enough to work with the ‘one-of-a-kind.'”

 

 

Whoopi Goldberg is honoring her late Sister Act costar Maggie Smith after the actress died Friday at the age of 89.

 

 

“Maggie Smith was a great woman and a brilliant actress. I still can’t believe I was lucky enough to work with the ‘one-of-a-kind,’” Goldberg wrote on Instagram. “My heartfelt condolences go out to the family…RIP.”

 

 

Alongside her tribute, Goldberg included a photo of her and Smith from Sister Act. Released in 1992, the comedy tells the story of Deloris Wilson (Goldberg), a lounge singer who is put in witness protection after witnessing a violent murder. She is then relocated to a convent in San Francisco, where she poses as Sister Mary Clarence and frequently butt heads with Smith’s Mother Superior.

 

 

Smith and Goldberg would go on to reprise their roles in the film’s sequel, Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit, which was released the following year. Then, in 2020, Disney announced that it planned to produce a third installment of the franchise that would be released on Disney+. Goldberg and her fellow castmates have provided updates on the project to fans in the years since, with Tanya Trotter most recently revealing that its script has been completed.

 

 

However, Goldberg has stated in the past that she’d only reprise her role in a potential threequel if Smith did, too. While visiting the British talk show Loose Women, Goldberg noted that she’s “holding the part of Mother Superior” for Smith.

 

 

“I just can’t do it with anybody but you,” she said at the time. “We don’t want to do it without you, Maggie.”
