Early this morning, the snow beast herself took to Instagram saying, “I have an announcement, we are in Greece filming My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3.”

A wide-eyed and excitable Nia Vardalos revealed the third instalment of the box office hit is being filmed in Plaka, Athens.

The 59-year-old captioned the clip: “much love and gratitude to you all for your support as we waited to film. Greece baby. Greece!”

This comes just a month after it was revealed that filming will also be taking place in Corfu.

Making her directorial debut in 2009 with her self-written and starred rom-com alongside on-screen husband, John Corbett, in I Hate Valentine’s Day – this will be Vardalos’ second time directing a film.
