What do you think of the casting of “Inventing Anna” actress Julia Garner to play Madonna in the forthcoming biopic?
Garner will be directed by The Material Girl herself. The movie is said to follow Madonna’s early days. Universal Filmed Entertainment Group chairman Donna Langley won the script in a multi-studio bidding war, and Amy Pascal is producer.
Other actors being consider include Florence Pugh, “Euphoria” star Alexa Demie, and Odessa Young. They’re auditioning singers too; Bebe Rexha and Sky Ferreira are in the conversation.
Madonna said she hoped to “convey the incredible journey that life has taken me on as an artist, a musician, a dancer — a human being, trying to make her way in this world. The focus of this film will always be music. Music has kept me going and art has kept me alive. There are so many untold and inspiring stories and who better to tell it than me. It’s essential to share the roller coaster ride of my life with my voice and vision.”
If Garner isn’t the best person to cast as Madonna, who is?
