The Julia Garner-led Madonna biopic, which was set to be written and directed by the pop star herself, has been shelved at Universal Studios.
Madonna has chosen to place her biopic on the back burner. According to a report from Variety, the biopic is no longer in development at Universal Pictures and the reason is that the Queen of Pop is currently busy with her music and has decided to give it all of her attention.
The sexagenarian pop star recently announced that she would be embarking on a new world tour which will mark her 12th world tour taking her across 40 cities. Fans are already hyped up about it as tickets have already sold out in major cities including New York, London, and Paris.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Universal Films announced in 2020 that the biopic had gone into early development and brought on Madonna as co-writer and director. The media house had previously been working on a different film about the pop star titled Blonde Ambition with Elyse Hollander writing the screenplay, and though Hollander's script was well-received by industry executives, Madonna was simply not pleased and was hesitant to give her blessing, thus the film was shelved.
“I’ve had an extraordinary life, I must make an extraordinary film. It was also a preemptive strike because a lot of people were trying to make movies about me. Mostly misogynistic men. So I put my foot in the door and said, ‘No one’s going to tell my story but me."Oscar winner Diablo Cody was selected to co-write the script with Madonna.
It isn't clear how this latest change will alter the progress made so far, but hopefully, the coming weeks can reveal more details. For now, go grab your tickets and get ready to party with the undisputed Queen of Pop.
