Madonna casts Ozark's Julia Garner to play her in biopic (The Guardian)

Garner reported to have beat out hopefuls including Florence Pugh and Alexa Demie to play the singer in the telling of her own life story.

The biopic would mark Madonna’s third feature film as director, after the London-set comedy-drama Filth and Wisdom from 2008 and the Wallis Simpson/Edward VIII biopic W.E., which was released in 2012. Anyone else who tries is a charlatan and a fool … Why would Universal Studios want to make a movie about me based on a script that is all lies???” An earlier attempt to mount a Madonna biopic derailed after the musician herself vocally criticised the script on social media.

Speaking about the film on The Tonight Show in October 2021, Madonna said that she wanted to take the reins as both a writer and director because previous attempts to dramatise her rise had been so misguided. Entertainment Weekly then reported that the bombshell was in talks to join the cast as Madonna's best friend, the actor Debi Mazar. Per The Hollywood Reporter, these included Little Women's Florence Pugh, Euphoria's Alexa Demie, Australian indie darling Odessa Young, and newcomer Emma Laird, as well as singers Bebe Rexha and Sky Ferreira. The auditions that some advanced to were described as "grueling" by sources with knowledge of the project, who added that they involved singing, acting and intense, sometimes 11-hours-long sessions with Madonna and her choreographer.

Julia Garner has been offered the leading role in the upcoming Madonna biopic, directed by Madonna herself, after a gruelling audition process.

The focus of the film will be music, in addition to the untold stories of Madonna's own life. Garner has yet to have a real breakout role on the big screen, and it's hard to imagine a better opportunity than this. None other than Madonna herself will be directing the film, with Amy Pascal (Barbie, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse) producing.

Who Is Julia Garner's Husband? All About Mark Foster (PEOPLE.com)

Here's all you need to know about Mark Foster, the frontman for the band Foster the People, who married Ozark actress Julia Garner in December 2019.

Garner later revealed to Vogue, "He read me a poem he had written to me, and when he finished, he dropped to a knee and asked me to marry him." It felt like I was floating up in the air — it was the most magical moment I've ever had." It was very surreal, and the most beautiful present I've ever received. Back in 2012, Foster spoke about writing a song with Swift, whom he called "super talented." Is this a stalker?' I clicked on him and I was like, 'Oh, Mark. Oh, he's cute. he told Fuse. "We kind of just went into it casually, like 'Yeah, let's just jam and just like have fun,' and something really cool came out of it." "Foster the People wouldn't exist without Mophonics," the songwriter previously told Bloomberg. "Mophonics is kind of a creative home for me." Reflecting on his commercial days, the composer told Interview Magazine, "When I wasn't composing for commercials, I would write. Garner added, "It kind of became a tradition." And I'm proud of the conversation that it created." Before his music hit the radio, Foster worked at the music production company Mophonics composing jingles for commercials, including Muscle Milk's " Spring Break It Down." While working there, Foster also wrote songs for his band. Four months later, I started the band, and eight months later, we were signed.

Julia Garner Cast as Queen of Pop After Conquering 'Madonna ... (Jezebel)

Garner will play the Queen of Pop in the upcoming biopic, but first she had to run a marathon in a rhinestone cone bra, or something.

She is now a legend in her own right, and I hope the corset chafing isn’t too bad. I like to think that Garner had to leap up and straddle various buff, bare-chested men on stage, in front of a dead-eyed Madonna herself. Can I run through a deserted field, fall gracefully, then sensually kiss the feet of Jesus? Do I have the right combination of sex appeal and vulnerability to sing “Like a Virgin” through a tulle veil?

The Inventing Anna star has been offered one of the most sought after roles in recent years.

Music has kept me going and art has kept me alive. It seems as though Julia Garner will be blessing our screens as the iconic ‘Material Girl’ very shortly. The Inventing Anna star was first rumoured to be in the running all the way back in August 2020, when Madonna’s manager Guy Oseary followed the actress on Instagram. The resemblance between the actress and a young Madonna is uncanny and fans have been clamouring for her to give a portrayal of the iconic pop star since the project was announced.
