Madge is directing her biopic - that’s right!

[Quote] Who should play young Madge?

Lourdes, of course.

Narcissism at its worst.

Madonna is starring, of course.

They should get the girl from the Breakfast Club movie.

This will make Glitter look like a masterwork.

Can you imagine being directed by her to play her? Worst experience an actor could have. R4 I have a feeling Madge decided to do this in response to that movie..I think it really rattled her.

I really liked W.E., for what’s worth. It wasn’t a completely successful movie but it was a fine attempt. I especially loved the 1990s scenes with the moneyed New Yorkers looking so chic in black with matte brown makeup.

Diablo: Madge, who should play you?

Madge: the girl who did Troy, is her baby sister available?

God, she's really killing her legacy. I was a fan for a long time, even when her newer music stopped appealing to me (around the Music/American Life era). And now, it's like she doesn't even want any fans.

Diablo: Madge, who should play you?

Madonna: If you call me Madge again, I'll shoot you in the face

Diablo: Fine.

Madonna: Great, you're hired!!

The Breakfast Club film should have been it as far as this stuff goes.

Madonna has too much money, she's bored, and has nothing to do. So here we are...

I'm sure Cody will do her best to make this work, but M will still throw a monkey wrench into the mix to muck it all up. The ego is incomparable.

Pray for Diablo. This sounds like the stuff of nightmares. Like Sunset Blvd. but without the fun.

Hope she leans as far in as she can. This could be a delightful disaster.

Who is the girl from The Breakfast Club? You mean the John Hughes film?

Will she cast a non-singer like herself?

R9, Madge isn’t investing in you for her legacy..the only thing she wants from you is your money at her shows. The stupid shit she does is to keep her name alive for the future inhabitants of the planet once she’s old and once she’s gone.

She’s investing in the future 30+ years from now when the only story will be according to her, based on what’s on celluloid and not based on DL commentary.

50 years from now, they’ll look at images of her at 62 and say, look how young she looked even then, and no one will contest it.

I read somewhere she wants Julia Garner from Ozark.

Madge should display her liberalism and cast a black girl to play her

This will definitely end in tears.

[quote] This will definitely end in tears.

Yes, Madonna in tears.

Well this has the potential to be the unintentional campfest the new century needs!

I might actually stream this at some point, and giggle away where nobody can see me, because betcha this is going to be the most outrageous display of naked female ego since "The Mirror Has Two Faces".

Diablo Cody, writer of Ricki and the Flash, is a hack. She got lucky with the vastly overrated Juno.

Is there any way that a narcissist like Madge doesn’t re-write history in telling this (her own) story? She should be writing this with someone else who was there like her brother. Has she really never made up with him? This is her opportunity to get proper revenge on him by totally minimizing his influence on her career and success haha.

Diablo Cody is a great beneficiary of that gross era in Hollywood when actresses were cast based on maxim magazine spreads and a writer could be discovered by a pervy manager looking up “pussy” online (her stripper diary popped up). Both madonna and brooke busey owe their careers to sex.

Madonna is directing? Clearly, she wants it to be a flop.

R14, "Madonna & The Breakfast Club" was a 2018 documentary on Madonna and her first band. It had re-enactments with Jamie Auld, who had an uncanny resemblance to young Madonna.

R26, wow, I didn't even know that documentary was ever released. Clearly, it did well.

I’m sure she’ll insist on playing herself, from six year old school choir cunt to current old hag

Lourdes could play Madonna dying her obviously brunette hair blonde until age 26 or so, the year when it began going gray and falling out--from which point forward Vagina can then portray herself through the film's end.

There is absolutely no point of this if it’s not rated R. I hope TPTB realize that. This is one of those things that needs to be done right or not at all.

I think Rocco should play Madonna for the boy toy era when she had a little pot belly.

I hope she won’t be like “uh, I’ll just play myself..it’s my story and I look the same” lol

Writing is no way to make money in Hollywood or anywhere, so I can see why Diablo would be desperate.

Her stripper diary was very well-written.

This is ROFL! This is a first right? When a living "icon" takes their autobiography in their own hands?

Hopefully she will add the song" Fried Fish" into her script

Imagine the embellishments of this story, created by this narcissist. We all remember the speech she made when she said “Michael is gone, Prince is gone, Tupac is gone, David Bowie is gone, Amy is gone, but I’M STILL HERE”.

"It's the tale of a woman who wanders, lost, through a world of materialism and greed, who realizes how empty her life is when she discovers.. .KABBALAH!"

Will the movie have the title of one of her songs? Ray of light perhaps?

She's such an egomaniac and control freak. This will be even worse than the behind the scenes drama of the first 50 Shades of Grey movie where Sam Taylor-Johnson had to deal with micromanaging E. L. James.

Is there anything left we don’t already know about her? Her entire life for the past 40 years has been captured on video and we were there in real time.

Is MS. Zeta Jones available? Or is she too young?

The movie will be called like a greatest world superstar who ever existed ever best creamy icon pop goddess

R31 that was when she looked her best, tbh.

It will be called "Hard Candy: Penetration Edition".

R42 she had her mannerisms down, too.

Here she is with DL nemesis, Andy C.

But the voice--

They will need a machine for the voice.

I wonder how many abortions and executive blowjobs it'll feature.

I hope she calls it, "Escapade: Why Y'all Don't Remember Janet Jackson--The Madonna Story"

R54, you might as well have said "PAGING JANBOT!!!".

Madonna has had a really interesting life. I’m hoping this will be good.

Even if Madonna were a brilliant filmmaker - which she obviously isn’t - this would be an obviously, glaringly inadvisable undertaking. She’s setting herself up to make a fool of herself - again. This one is sure to continue her historic hot streak of Razzies.

If she doesn't writhe on a grave, I'll want my money back!

Jesus fucking Christ. I should have aborted that fucking cunt. Attention. Attention. Attebtion! She never gets enough!

I think an honest, forthright autobiography would be better. Don’t hold your collective breath, though...

"Madonna has had a really interesting life. I’m hoping this will be good. "?

Sorry, R56, but Madge is directing this herself.

They should depict her getting the biannual abortions she got in her 20s and 30s. Fucking sociopath.

This is just so sad. She is so egotistical and narcissistic. Even Babs didn't direct a pic of her own life.

She is making a joke of her entire legacy.

[quote] I’m sure she’ll insist on playing herself, from six year old school choir cunt to current old hag

Break out the LucyMAME filters.

I wonder if she'll direct the scene of herself laughing when she hears one of her staff might have been drugged and gang raped? I sometimes wonder, in this cancel-heavy culture we have now, why no one on Twitter has brought that up and posted it around with the hashtag #madonnaisoverparty, or similar. And thinking about it now, perhaps that's the real sign of her irrelevance? That no one is bothering to even try and cancel her?

She has led an interesting life in many ways, and in someone else's hands, this could potentially be good. The early New York years are particularly interesting, especially considering the scene she was a part of. But I just don't think this is going to turn out well at all.

Madonna would turn it around r65 by bringing up the fact that she was raped herself as she has claimed.

100% agreed R60. An autobiography written by Madonna (and editorial support staff) which was brutally honest, spared nobody and where she wasn't afraid to show herself in a bad light or a situation for exactly what it was in the pursuit of keeping it factual. She is far too rich and famous to have to worry about any outfall.

THAT would be something I would buy and read and I suspect it would be a massive success.

Do you honestly think Madonna reflects much on when she was bad (girl)? She's a means to an end person. If she gets what she wants, then all is good.

The whole movie is going to be about how she fought against sexism and misogyny and "dared to show the world the fantasies from the point of view of a woman".

It will be two hours of Madonna patting herself on the back.

I think the movie will never happen. She’ll die in a freak accident. It just doesn’t feel right or fated.

It will never happen because Diablo will tire of her shit and nobody will want to release the tacky vanity project when she eventually takes over every aspect.

If she casts Billie Eilish, it will get made.

Billie Eilish looks like what would happen if they tried to make a yeast infection into a cartoon character.

[quote]I wonder how many abortions and executive blowjobs it'll feature.

Ironic coming from a community who hangs out in public toilets waiting for an anonymous cock to get stuck through a hole in a stall to pleasure. Funny, no?

It seems like this is now the new thing or at least it will be after Madonna does it...celebs making movies about their lives especially while they’re still alive. We’ve seen Rocketman, TLC movie, Bobby Brown movie, Wendy Williams upcoming movie. We’ve seen the success of Mama Mia, Notorious, Straight outta Compton, Bohemmian Rhapsody, Aaliyah movie, Whitney movie.

I think more and more celebs will start making movies of their lives while they’re still alive as a means to make the career even longer. And then they’ll all end up with a podcast...that’s the the last step.

It's the new thing?

Shirley MacLaine, Sophia Loren and Joan Rivers all played themselves in cheesy made for TV biopics - the concept isn’t new.

This would be an autobiopic?

Directed and co-written.

Would this be the first autobiopic?

No, dear.

^ Like what else is there?

A reguar biopic...

*regular

[quote]This will definitely end in tears.

[quote]Yes, Madonna in tears.

The rest of us will just have tears from laughing.

It won't be good enough to be bad-good.

If she had any sense she’d realize she’s setting herself up to fail - this is by definition a vanity project. I agree with someone upthread that she’ll superimpose feminist tropes over the sleazy reality of her story.

Feminists can't be sleazy? Some love sleaze. Plenty of gay men do...

R76 in the sense that a celebrity who is still somewhat at the top (I know, she’s far from the heights of blonde ambition) is doing this. What’s next, the Taylor Swift or Beyoncé autobiopic? Every celeb will want to tell their story on the big screen now. It used to be a thing to do when your career was ovaaaa!

Madge, as much as we hate on her and hate on her career being over, she still has more music. It can only mean that since the Elton movie, it is now cool and sensible for celebs who still have more years, health. fame and power to tell their story on screen.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they start making sequels of their life story. This could be very lucrative.

Are y'all forgetting Al Jolson in The Jazz Singer? I thought some of you attended the premiere.

"Old Whore"

Coming Fall 2021

[quote] It used to be a thing to do when your career was ovaaaa!

It used to be a thing others would do when a star was either 80 or dead.

Just watch this instead, it's so much better.

What a fetching ensemble.

Is there anyone else who's made their own biopic? I don't mean autobiographical, but actually an autobiography on film. I think she may be the first.

[Quote] I don't mean autobiographical, but actually an autobiography on film.

Que?

She's a first

The ONLY Madge I ever gave a fuck about...

Madonna will hide her lack of talent, interest in singing (she was only ever interested in fame), disastrous interpersonal relationships, sociopathic sexual appetite, manifold abortions, multiple plastic surgeries.

I mean, I know Diablo previously explored a female sociopath in "Young Adult." But this is beyond that level of accessible or entertaining. IT's going to destroy lives.

Whatever happens, I hope there is a French & Saunders' parody of the movie.

"Once upon a time there was a naughty, dirty little girl who sung and danced her way to the top. She didn't care who she was horrid to in order to get famous..."

....

^Haha, I remember that one. I loved how perfectly they portrayed Ritchie's transparent attempts to be a "lad".

I didn’t realize how many people she slept with. Whew!
