Things got a little awkward on The View last week when co-host Whoopi Goldberg didn’t appear enthusiastic about the possibility of her former Sister Act co-star Kathy Najimy appearing in Sister Act 3. <\/p>\n

Najimy, who was on the show in part to promote Hocus Pocus 2, a sequel to another one of her films, asked Goldberg if she knew whether a third Sister Act installation was in the works. <\/p>\n

‘I haven’t heard anything formal about 3 yet, I’ve heard rumblings of it. I think it’d be a blast of fun. I look forward to the nuns that we were with that are still with us, seeing them again, they were fantastic, so much fun,’ said Najimy. <\/p>\n

She then directly asked Goldberg if the movie was happening. <\/p>\n

‘Where is that horse? Is that happening?’ <\/p>\n

The View co-host and Oscar-winning actress confirmed the third movie ‘is happening’ and added ‘we’re getting a script at the end of the month,’ but did not mention whether Najimy had been invited.<\/p>\n

‘It took a little while, but it’s happening. You all helped that happen, I think, because they brought Hocus Pocus back,’ said Goldberg, noting that producer Tyler Perry is also on board. <\/p>\n

Najimy co-starred as Sister Mary Patrick with Goldberg in both Sister Act and Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit. <\/p>\n

Things appeared to get a little awkward on The View last week when co-host Whoopi Goldberg didn’t appear to give Sister Act co-star Kathy Najimy (pictured second from right) a clear path to appearing in an upcoming sequel<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

At no point did Goldberg appear to confirm Najimy would be involved and viewers at home noticed that the actress appeared unenthusiastic<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

In addition to the Hocus Pocus and Sister Act movies, Najimy also famously voiced Peggy on King of the Hill.<\/p>\n

She was also appearing on The View to promote her new book My Moment, a collection of stories by women ‘on the moment they realized they were ready to fight for themselves.’<\/p>\n

The hosts gabbed about the book and Najimy’s pro-choice advocacy, as well as Hocus Pocus 2 when the conversation turned to the possibility of a Sister Act threequel going forward. <\/p>\n

The popular sequel, Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit, came out in 1993.<\/p>\n

Whoopi said the much-delayed third installment was finally greenlit in part due to the success of Hocus Pocus 2.<\/p>\n

‘They finally said, \u201cwe might as well put those nuns back out there and see if they have any juice.\u201d’<\/p>\n

However, at no point did Goldberg appear to confirm Najimy would be involved and viewers at home noticed that the co-host appeared unenthusiastic at the topic.<\/p>\n

‘Why is Kathy Najimy not invited back to be a part of #SisterAct3?! She is a huge reason for the success of the franchise! I think it’s a big mistake not to ask her back!’ one such viewer tweeted.<\/p>\n

Others interpreted the exchange as an obvious slight by Goldberg.<\/p>\n

‘I can’t stop watching Whoopi not inviting Kathy Najimy back for Sister Act 3. Evil and awkward, sweat inducing,’ another wrote.<\/p>\n

\n

Viewers appeared to notice Najimy’s seeming displeasure when she learned on air that the third movie had been greenlit without her knowledge<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

A third user pointed out the uncomfortable position Najimy had been placed in.<\/p>\n

‘You all put Kathy in a horribly awkward spot. Don’t bring up Sister Act 3 if Kathy is not attached to the project. Maybe she will be she, but why bring it up until it’s confirmed?’<\/p>\n

Javierson McCoy said the moment ‘seemed cruel.’<\/p>\n

‘We never know what’s behind the scenes but that was very awkward and mean. As if it wouldn’t have been brought up. Give her a heads up. Her reaction was authentically shock and then sadness when she realized no offer seemed to be possible.’<\/p>\n

Aside from the Hocus Pocus sequel, Najimy most recently appeared in Apple TV+’s The Morning Show. <\/p>\n

In September, when Tyler Perry appeared on The View, he revealed that he ‘loved the idea’ of helping to make Sister Act 3 but commented that the Hollywood system moves slower than outsiders would think.<\/p>\n

Commenting on the screenplay Perry said, ‘We’ve got a good script, we’re off to a great start.’<\/p>\n
