## Summary

Julia Garner says the status of the Madonna biopic changes frequently, leaving its prospects uncertain. The update matters because the film, announced in 2020 and once set to be written and directed by Madonna, has been stalled since Universal shelved it early last year.

Garner remains attached to play Madonna and said she would like the film to be made, while stressing that the decision is not hers. She also said she had made a great friend in Madonna; a year earlier, Garner had said the project was still supposed to happen. The article places the update amid renewed interest in music biopics following the reported $1 billion theatrical success of Michael.
