Madonna to Co-Write, Direct Her Own Biopic | Hollywood Reporter

Madonna has teamed with screenwriter Diablo Cody, producer Amy Pascal and Universal for a biopic on herself. In this case, call it an autobiopic as the music and pop culture icon is not only co-writing the script with Cody, who won an Oscar for writing Juno, but directing the project as well.

“I want to convey the incredible journey that life has taken me on as an artist, a musician, a dancer – a human being, trying to make her way in this world,” said Madonna. “The focus of this film will always be music. Music has kept me going and art has kept me alive. There are so many untold and inspiring stories and who better to tell it than me. It’s essential to share the roller coaster ride of my life with my voice and vision.”

Madonna has had a long and interesting life, so it should be very interesting. Like moving to New York City and slowly moving up in show business until she became successful and famous.  Madonna has a rather detailed biography of her.

What the public is burning to know is what names Madonna rejected while coming up with Lourdes, Rocco, and Estere for three of her kids. Apple, Scout, and Rumor were already used by other celebs. What's left: Rutabaga? Phalanges? Fliptop? I think celebrities who pick these names should at least pay those kids an extra big bequest, and the will should clearly state that a Shitty Name Revocable Trust has been set up.
