Madonna stopped production on a biopic almost a year ago because of the “Celebration Tour” and has now decided to resume the project. The singer returned to talks with Universal Pictures to complete the script in the coming months. The hope of the performer of “Holiday” and “Open Your Heart” is that recordings begin next year. She also already has a name to play her in the film: Julia Garner.
American actress and model, Julia is known for playing Ruth Langmore in the Netflix series ‘Ozark’, and has been taking singing and dancing lessons in secret since last year.
According to Variety magazine, Madonna conducted a selection at the end of 2022 and Florence Pugh, Alexa Demie, Odessa Young, Bebe Rexha and Sky Ferreira were some of the names that entered the contest and carried out the casting tests. Julia was the one who pleased the singer the most.
Madonna also plans to direct and produce the film. She wants to have full control over her story: “I’ve had an extraordinary life, so I must make an extraordinary film. It was also a preventative measure because a lot of people were trying to make films about me, especially misogynistic men. So I took the initiative and said: ‘No one will tell my story but me,'” he explained.
