Emma Roberts is apparently a huge fan of Britney Spears. It would be her dream to play the singer on screen.
Stars are also often fans of other big names in show business. Emma Roberts (33) has long made a name for herself with roles in series such as “American Horror Story” and films such as “We’re the Millers”. The daughter of actor Eric Roberts (68) and niece of Hollywood star Julia Roberts (56) also seems to be a big fan of Britney Spears (42). Roberts is now hinting at this. She would be delighted if she could play the pop star.
And the opportunity could actually arise. At the beginning of August, it was announced that Spears would get her own biopic. As reported by , Universal Pictures has secured rights to the singer’s autobiography, “The Woman in Me”, which will be published in 2023. “Wicked” director Jon M. Chu (44) and producer Marc Platt (67) are said to be linked to the project. Spears seemed to confirm the plan and indicated that she was apparently directly involved.
“It’s a rumor, but I hope it might come true”
A few weeks ago, a former assistant to Spears suggested Roberts, saying that she thought the 33-year-old would be a wonderful choice for the role of the singer. “I love her assistant,” Roberts said when she heard about it. The actress continued: “I mean, it’s my true dream to play Britney Spears. It’s a rumor, but I hope it might come true.”
Roberts talks about how she locked herself in and listened to Spears’ fourth studio album from 2003: “I remember locking myself in my room, listening to ‘In the Zone’ and saying to myself, ‘I can’t leave this room until I’ve memorized every word.'” And that’s not all. The American has been a mother to a boy since the end of 2020. “I’m constantly singing Britney to my son in the bathtub,” she says. “I always think, ‘God, he must think I’m so weird.'”
