Sabrina Carpenter and Millie Bobby Brown in Biopic Rumors Debunked by Director

by

The blockbuster movie adaptation of the 2023 memoir by the Pop Princess, titled “The Woman in Me,” is now under development to grace the silver screen. Since its announcement, there’s been a whirlwind of speculation, particularly regarding who will don the sought-after tiara. At this stage, details are scarce, but it’s confirmed that Jon M. Chu will direct the Spears biopic, as announced by Britney Spears herself. Rumors have been swirling about potential contenders for the lead role, with Sabrina Carpenter and Millie Bobby Brown among the names mentioned, but Chu has provided some clarity on who might portray the pop sensation.

In preparation for the upcoming release of “Wicked: For Good” this year, Chu has been occupied with several pre-production tasks, such as “Crazy Rich Asians 2” and “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat”. Contrary to rumors circulating in some headlines, Buzzing Pop’s X account mentioned a potential biopic involving Sabrina Carpenter, Millie Bobby Brown, and Ariana Grande. However, the director of “In the Heights” has clarified that these claims are merely intriguing ideas but currently unfounded and not yet at a point where auditions can be held. He explained:

Nothing here is factual. Despite the intriguing notion, there hasn’t been a single discussion regarding the film’s cast. We’re still very much in the initial stages of production. I apologize.

It’s reassuring to learn that there are no issues preventing the production of the highly anticipated film, and we can all relax for now. With a title this significant, it’s likely they’ll take their time to get everything right. According to sources, the lead actor is keen on ensuring the Spears biopic will be a success, avoiding any missteps like those in the Madonna biopic. The suggestion of the three potential candidates for the role of handling the python again could make for an intriguing film, similar to Chu’s response.

In addition to various theories and fan suggestions, potential choices for the role of Britney Spears have emerged. Some names on the list are Florence Pugh, Emma Roberts, Olivia Holt, Tate McRae, Sydney Sweeney, Addison Rae, Elle Fanning (alongside the previously mentioned group).

It’s understandable why Sabrina Carpenter, often referred to as the “queen of Brinacore,” has gained such popularity – she is a successful pop singer and has acting experience similar to Spears. Millie Bobby Brown is equally well-known, with her starring roles in numerous Netflix shows like Stranger Things S5 and her distinctive blonde hairdo adding to her recognition. Ariana Grande’s fame may not surpass the other two, but her association with Chu from their time together on Wicked could play a role. In conclusion, it seems that the field for the future pop biopic is still wide open for anyone aiming to make a mark.

Currently, we’ll need to trust what Chu says about his upcoming projects and eagerly anticipate them in the meantime. Once the actress cast for the Spears project is officially revealed, there’s no question that it will generate a lot of excitement!
