Disney is planning to bring back "Sister Act," the hit comedy film that starred Whoopi Goldberg in 1992.

Details about the cast and plot have been scarce but according to The Hollywood Reporter, the film company has already chosen the writers for the film, and they are Karen McCullah and Kirsten Smith, the tandem behind hit movie "Legally Blonde."

The original film had Goldberg as a witness to a murder who pretends to be a nun to hide her real identity from the men who want to kill her. Her participation in “Sister Act” was iconic and memorable, but it remains unknown whether or not she will be involved in some capacity for the remake. The same goes with one of the film’s breakout stars, Lauryn Hill from “The Fugees.”

“Sister Act” had a total gross earnings of $231 million at the global box office, as pointed out by Box Office Mojo. These numbers were so impressive that the story was later adapted into a Tony-winning Broadway musical in 2011. The success of the film during the 90s and its musical has most likely been a major catalyst that inspired studios to re-ignite the franchise.

Obtaining McCullah and Smith to write the screenplay, together with Allison Shearmur to produce, was a good move for the studio, considering that they are known for their ability to come up with very good female-led comedies, ones that have character-based stories but can still appeal to all genders quite easily.

Fans of the franchise are hopeful that Goldberg will be onboard for the “Sister Act” remake once again, especially if she will portray the same character, Deloris Van Cartier. Plus, a plot that involves her character going undercover one more time will also be interesting.

It has been over two decades from when the original film had dominated theaters. That said, there is plenty of room to develop a storyline that is palatable to the fans of the 90s classic comedy, as well as a much younger demographic who are looking for a good laugh and some amazing music numbers.
