Emma Roberts Aspires to Portray Britney Spears in Upcoming Biopic
Emma RobertsEmma Roberts has expressed her enthusiastic interest in playing pop icon Britney Spears in a forthcoming biopic based on Spears' explosive memoir, "The Woman In Me." This memoir, which shattered bestselling records following its release in late 2023, is set to be adapted into a film by Universal Pictures with celebrated director Jon M. Chu at the helm.
Roberts, known for her roles in productions like "American Horror Story, " caught public attention when Felicia Culotta, Britney's former assistant, mentioned her as a potential candidate for the role. Roberts responded to this casting prospect with glee, calling it her "true dream" to portray the pop star.
In an interview with Cosmopolitan, Roberts shared her deep admiration for Spears, highlighting her connection to the singer's music. "I remember I locked myself in my room and listened to 'In the Zone' and said, 'I cannot leave this room until I memorize every word,'" Roberts recalled, noting her dedication to Spears' art. Her love for Britney's music even extends to her parenting habits as she often sings Britney tunes to her son during bath time.
The memoir "The Woman In Me" provides a detailed account of Britney's rise to fame, from her early days in "The Mickey Mouse Club" to becoming a global pop sensation, while also addressing her struggles with family dynamics and the notorious conservatorship that governed her life for 13 years. With its compelling narrative, the film adaptation is expected to draw significant attention, both for its subject matter and Roberts' potential involvement.
