Millie Bobby Brown really wants to play Britney Spears in an upcoming biopic and has changed her look to resemble Britney. She has also tried to use her father-in-law, Jon Bon Jovi, to help her get the role. Markle is also facing a legal issue in California.
However, the biggest challenge for Millie is Britney herself. The singer, 43, has seen Millie’s audition tape but isn’t convinced she’s the right choice. According to sources, Britney doesn’t think they look alike.
Millie, 21, has spoken many times about her dream of playing Britney. She even dyed her hair blonde to look more like her. Despite all her efforts, Britney still isn’t sure Millie can truly portray her.
The casting process has been going on for months, and if Millie were the perfect choice, she would have been selected already. Sources say that while makeup and prosthetics could help her look more like Britney, the final decision is Britney’s, and she’s not convinced yet.
Millie previously said she relates to Britney because they both grew up in the public eye. But when she mentioned wanting to play Britney in 2022, Britney seemed upset and responded on Instagram, saying, “I’m not dead!”
Universal Studios won the rights to the biopic after a bidding war, and director Jon M. Chu is working on the project. He recently said that Britney will be very involved in telling her own story, but the movie will take time to develop.
