The arduous efforts to find the perfect woman to portray the pop icon, Madonna, in her biopic have come to a “starry” end, as per reports. After scouting for the actress, Madonna’s biopic will star the ‘Ozark’ star, Julia Garner. Although the biopic itself had hindrances when the writer Diablo Cody exited the project, things are back on track. The film has now found its leading face!
Julia Garner Is Madonna’s First Choice
‘The Perks Of Being A Wallflower’ actress seemed to impress Madonna from the inception of the audition process. As per The Hollywood Reporter, the process was a “grueling” one. The actresses had to go through intense dance routines with the Queen of Pop’s music. There were reports that ‘Black Widow’ star Florence Pugh, ‘Euphoria”s Alexa Damie, Bebe Rexha, and Sky Ferreira were competing for the prestigious role.
Why Madonna Agreed To Her Biopic
The ‘Vogue’ artist stated that she is willing 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 them than me. It’s essential to share the roller coaster ride of my life with my voice and vision.”
