Actor Terence Stamp, who starred in the 1994 film The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, unfortunately passed away last year. But before he passed away, Stamp filmed scenes for the sequel film that Guy Pearce has assured will begin filming next year. 

According to a report from World of Reel, Terence Stamp "spent the final months of his life reprising his memorable role as Bernadette for the sequel". After Stamp was able to complete filming before he passed away, director Stephan Elliott told World of Reel that he was "pretty devastated" in the aftermath of Stamp's death and "needed time to mourn before deciding how to proceed with the sequel." 

Now, Guy Pearce has confirmed to Good Morning America that the sequel to The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert will begin production soon. "We’ll probably shoot it ’27, it’ll come out ’28," said Pearce. 

It's unclear how the footage of Stamp will factor into the rest of production on the sequel film. The report states that Stamp's scenes were shot using "a nine-camera array over multiple rigorous sessions," and that the actor "insisted on performing the role himself rather than using a digital double." 

In the meantime, you can rewatch The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.
