Raise your glasses of Bolly Stoli darlings because Jennifer Saunders is penning an Absolutely Fabulous feature film, according to Deadline.
It’s a big year for fans who’ve been missing Eddy and Patsy’s antics with BBC recently producing three Ab Fab specials, the first of which will begin airing over Christmas in the UK.
Saunders, who’s been playing Eddy Monsoon on and off for over two decades now, will begin work on the feature once she’s finished work on the Spice Girls’ London stage musical Viva Forever.
The series that began in 1992 focuses on the friendship between Eddy and Patsy (Joanna Lumley), the most hilarious, lovable pair of shallow, drunken solipsists there ever were.
Ab Fab: The Movie will kick off with Patsy and Edina waking up hungover in the empty drifting yacht of an oligarch in the middle of the ocean, Deadline reports.
