The Spice Girls are to make a follow up to `Spice World`
The band - made up of Geri Halliwell, Mel B, Mel C, Victoria Beckham and Emma Bunton - has enlisted the help of `Mamma Mia!` director Judy Cramer to create the film, tentatively called `Viva Forever`.
Emma Bunton revealed: "Now we`re all involved in the new Spice Girls film, which is being done by Judy Craymer and the team behind `Mamma Mia!`
"We would`ve liked to do another film, but after `Spice World` there was an album, then a tour and then Geri left, so it didn`t happen."
`Spice World` grossed $29 million in the US on its release in 1998, and featured cameos from Elton John, Richard E. Grant, Michael Barrymore, Alan Cumming and Richard O`Brien.
`Viva Forever` would be a movie adaptation of the musical being worked on by the band - but it is unclear if they would star in the second film.
Only Mel C has gone on to forge an acting career since leaving the Spice Girls, appearing in West End musical `Blood Brothers`.
