Britney Spears biopic

Yeah

[Britnasty]

Day -1. Meaning I’ll be there before it opens somehow.

Anything for Godney.

[Dublingin]

This sounds very promising! I just hope they let her have her input.

Given the fact that half her career was effectively stolen from her in a forced conservatorship, whoever directs this thing will have quite a few plot holes to fill. The case lasted 13 years, longer than her whole job up to that point.

Idris Elba for the role of Britney.

You didn't read it properly, it landed at Universal not Disney.

Hope they recreate this scene...

My one hope is that it covers the time she performed at the Scarborough Open Air Theatre. Seeing such a major name perform at a small seaside town here in the UK was such a big deal at the time, and inspired more big names like Kylie Minogue and Johnny Depp to come.

Is she still spinning?

Will probably be 90% fiction and 10% fact just like most other, ahem, 'biopics' made about a famous singer or band.

I have a Freddie Mercury biography on my Kindle account, we'll see if it's any good after I finish listening to Game of Thrones.

Emma Robert’s?!

The avg looking woman who beats up on her bfs???

Even though Britney needs help and a conservator, I still think they need to put someone attractive and with some charisma in the role.

Yes she needs a lot of help her family essentially controls everything she does it’s so messed up I got to be honest with you she needs to get away from her family, and get out of Hollywood, and California itself immediately.

Jon M. Chu Says Britney Spears Biopic Not Casting Yet Amid Reports of Ariana Grande, Sabrina Carpenter and Millie Bobby Brown Battling for Role

Jon M. Chu is shutting down casting rumors surrounding his upcoming Britney Spears biopic movie. The “Wicked” director told fans on X that his movie is not even in the casting process yet as reports circulate claiming that Ariana Grande, Sabrina Carpenter and Millie Bobby Brown are battling it out to play the iconic pop star on the big screen.

“None of this is true,” Chu wrote in response to Grande, Carpenter and Brown being contenders. “Sounds exciting but have not had one conversation about casting this movie yet. We are way too early in development. Sorry.

Chu directed Grande to an Oscar nomination in “Wicked,” and the duo have the second movie, “Wicked: For Good,” arriving in theaters this November. The musical’s film studio, Universal Pictures, is backing the Britney Spears biopic, as is “Wicked” producer Mark Platt. Universal landed the rights to the biopic last August. The film will be based on Spears’ blockbuster memoir “The Woman in Me,” which has sold over 2.5 million copies in the United States alone.

In the book, Spears chronicled her journey to pop superstardom from her “Mickey Mouse Club” days through her highly-publicized and scrutinized conservatorship case. The audiobook — read by Academy Award-nominated actor Michelle Williams, with an introduction by Spears — is the fastest-selling in Simon & Schuster’s history. It’s unclear what part of Spears’ life the biopic will focus on.
