Julia Garner says she does not know whether the planned Madonna biopic will be made, as the project’s status continues to change. The actor, who was set to play the singer, told CBS Sunday Morning that she has not given up hope but that the decision is not hers.
“I don’t know. Every hour it changes in some way,” Garner said. She added that she would like the film to go ahead, but had gained a good friend through the experience: “I love Madonna.”
The film, which Madonna was due to direct, stalled in early 2023. Madonna recently told Interview magazine that she had fallen out with Universal Pictures over the budget. She is now working with director Shawn Levy on a Netflix miniseries about her life.
