Jennifer Saunders was implored by Joanna Lumley to make the 'Absolutely Fabulous' movie before they both die.
The 56-year-old star has confirmed that the eagerly-awaited movie will begin filming in London and the south of France later this year, but admitted she's been put off making the movie because of nerves.
She said: "I think [nerves are] why I didn't do it for a while. I thought, wouldn't it be awful if it was awful but now we're all so old, Joanna [Lumley] said to me 'do it before we die!' We're all on the brink."
Jennifer also revealed that most of the TV show's original cast, including Joanna, will return for the movie.
She told ITV's 'Loose Women': "There is a plot and that's the miracle! It involves all the main characters and virtually everyone that's ever been in the series, all those characters and we're in London and sometimes we might go to the South of France, I'm hoping.
"I'm waiting for the budget! It could be anywhere - if it's a big budget it will be the Bahamas!"
Jennifer revealed filming for the movie is set to begin in the autumn.

Justin Bieber has joined the star-studded cast of 'Zoolander 2'.
The 21-year-old singer has followed in the footsteps of several high-profile celebrities, including Penelope Cruz and Billy Zane, by filming a cameo for the much-anticipated comedy sequel directed by Justin Theroux.
Justin confirmed the news on his Instagram and Twitter feeds earlier today (29.04.15), posting a picture of himself alongside Ben Stiller, who is set to reprise the role of dimwitted male model Derek Zoolander.
Another star set to appear in the new film is hip-hop icon Kanye West and his wife, reality TV personality Kim Kardashian West.
Kanye's role in the film was reportedly agreed after his friend Will Ferrell suggested him for a part, while it's also been claimed Kanye requested his wife be given a cameo in the comedy movie.
A source said: "Kanye is friends with Will and appeared briefly in 'Anchorman 2' but he wanted to be in 'Zoolander 2' even more. It's very likely that Kim will also appear in some capacity."
Last week, Formula One World Champion Lewis Hamilton was pictured filming his cameo for the film, which is set for release in February 2016.

John Boyega has revealed "an own goal" helped him land a part in 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens'.
The 23-year-old actor - who's been cast in the role of Finn in the J.J. Abrams-directed movie - has confessed he only turned to cinema when he realised he wasn't good enough to become a professional soccer player and managed to embarrassingly scored an own goal.
The London-born star told Metro newspaper: "I tried to kick a ball because I thought I would able a footballer but I ended up scoring in our own goal!
"So I decided to just let that be ... perhaps I should try acting."
What's more, John also credited his Pentecostal minister dad for helping him get into the Jedi mindset.
He explained: "The discipline kind of got me into a universe of Jedi, and now I think I know how to have a foundation between the dark and the light."
Meanwhile, Disney recently saw its share price climb by $2 billion following a two-minute clip of the much-discussed new movie.
The trailer premiered at an event in California earlier this month, with the movie set for release in December.

Michael Sheen doesn't like the "snobbishness" that surrounds the film industry
The 46-year-old actor - who's appeared in 'The Queen' and the 'Twilight' movies - has revealed people are "snobbish" about his work, but says he'll appear in anything as long as it "excites" him.
Michael said: "People will say to me, 'You do things like 'The Queen' and 'Frost/Nixon' and then you do 'Twilight', 'Tron' and 'Underworld'?'
"There's no room for snobbishness, it doesn't matter what genre you're working in, you just make a connection with the work, and if it gets you going, it excites you and it's the kind of work I'd like to go and see and I have a wide range of tastes."
The actor also insisted he's not an impersonator, despite having portrayed former British Prime Minister Tony Blair and journalist David Frost in the past.
Michael told the Huffington Post: "When people do impersonations, it's for a very short period of time, usually around a series of jokes, because an impersonation can't sustain telling a story.
"What I love about playing real people is that it's more of a challenge. It's everything you'd normally do for a character but you have to attend to this other bit, which is to get people to accept you as that person from the start."

Bradley Cooper knew he and his 'Aloha' co-star Rachel McAdams would have "great chemistry".
The 'Wedding Crashers' co-stars have reunited for Cameron Crowe's new movie and the 40-year-old actor was delighted to find the 36-year-old actress even better to work with than he remembered.
He told 'Entertainment Tonight': "I knew that we would have great chemistry.
"At least I thought we would based on 'Wedding Crashers', a movie I'd done with her 10 years ago. I always thought, 'Wow! It's so easy to work with her.' She's so present and it only got stronger after 10 years."
Meanwhile, Rachel enjoyed working with Bradley because he is so passionate about the project.
She gushed: "It's such a wonderful thing to come to work with Bradley every day, because he has so much passion for not just his character but the whole film - the whole process.
"He approaches every scene like he wants it to be the best scene filmed ever."
The pair are joined in the film - which sees a military contractor screw up a deal, forcing him to return to Hawaii, where he tries to romance both an old flame and a young air force pilot - by an all-star cast including Emma Stone, John Krasinski, Alec Baldwin, Danny McBride, Jay Baruchel and Bill Murray.

Mark Ruffalo worries Robert Downey Jr considers him "a little insane".
The 47-year-old actor - who stars alongside the Hollywood icon in 'The Avengers: Age of Ultron' - has revealed he's developed a close friendship with the Iron Man actor, even if Downey Jr considers him to be a little quirky.
Ruffalo said: "He's been just a bro to me.
"He also, he thinks I'm a little insane. So when we get into those moments (during filming), we are half laughing through the whole thing. He's half like, 'Ruffalo, how do you even get up out of bed?'
"He has the most endearing sort of patience and tolerance for me. And we literally are laughing behind everything. I don't know what's going to come up with him, which makes it so much fun and alive."
Ruffalo also revealed his co-star helped him to overcome his fears of joining the iconic franchise.
Ruffalo - who plays the Hulk/Bruce Banner - told People magazine: "He's kind of my godfather in the world. He sort of gave me the okay to come join and has sort of bolstered me along the way when I've had my doubts, which are plenty. And he has made sure that (Bruce) Banner's been well represented."

'Lord of the Rings' cinematographer Andrew Lesnie has died of a heart attack, aged 59.
The Oscar-winning picture-maker was best-known for his contribution to the production of the 'Lord of the Rings' and 'Hobbit' films, while he also worked on blockbusters 'Rise of the Planet of the Apes' and Will Smith's 'I Am Legend'.
The owners of his production company WETA Digital, Richard & Tania Taylor, posted a statement on his death on Facebook.
It read: "Our memories of Andrew will always be of a wonderful and caring person who looked out for the technicians around him, was keen to have a good laugh and keep everyone jollied along even when things were at the most stressful for everyone."
They said they were "fortunate" to have worked with him, and added: "What an incredible man and we are very fortunate to have had the chance to work with him on so many wonderful projects."
In 2002, Australian-born Lesnie, received his Oscar for lensing the original 'Lord of the Rings, The Fellowship of the Ring' movie.
He was also inducted into the Australian Cinematographers Society Hall of Fame in the same year.

Chris Evans has likened the movie 'Birdman' to "group therapy".
The 33-year-old actor, who stars in 'The Avengers: Age of Ultron', has revealed he's a huge fan of the Oscar-winning comedy-drama film and admitted it helped to ease some of his insecurities.
He explained: "The last movie I saw: 'Birdman'. Loved it. It was very helpful to me. Sometimes in this business, it's easy to feel like you're the only one struggling or you're the only one who has these anxieties or insecurities. It's a tricky business, a very heady business.
"Actors in general are heady people. Just seeing a movie so beautiful bringing to life someone who is struggling with all those things I just mentioned ... it felt like a support group or something. It was nice. It was just nice to relate."
What's more, Chris confessed he was anxious about starring in his first standalone Captain America movie, which was released in 2011.
He told Esquire magazine: "The first [Captain America] was the most intense because you just don't know how the character's going to be received, you don't know how you're going to be received portraying the character.
"With the second one, there's a little less pressure, but again, you still don't want to be the weak link in the chain. Marvel's got such a track record for making quality work, you don't want to be a dud. But even their worst movies are better than what any other studio could hope to be making. It can only get so bad at Marvel."

Joss Whedon has revealed 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' still gets more fan attention than the 'Avengers'.
The 50-year-old film director has admitted the cult TV show commands more interest than the Marvel superheroes, who are played by the likes of Chris Hemsworth, Robert Downey Jr., and Scarlett Johansson.
Joss said: "Buffy fans are a very intelligent, passionate and literate lot. It was very weird for me. I thought, 'We're going to make this show good but we won't tell anyone about the metaphor' and right away, everybody got it."
On the other hand, Joss revealed he enjoyed making 'Avengers: Age of Ultron' because it's "weird" and has a "messiness" about it.
He told Metro newspaper: "I'm very proud of everybody else who worked on ('Avengers') and that it's a weird movie. And we got to say some things that you don't normally get to say in a big summertime blockbuster. For all its messiness, it's all heart."
Last week, Joss suggested he might make a 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' movie at some stage in the future.
Asked if a Buffy movie will happen, Joss told BANG Showbiz: "Never rule anything out, but I haven't got anything planned at this stage."
