In October, she said the script was 133 pages. I think a series would be ideal. She has lived an eventful life and wants to cover a lot a lot of moments. After seeing these Post-it notes and hearing her talk about the film, I can see why she didn't want someone else telling her story. I skimmed the script that was written for the Universal biopic Blonde Ambition, and it was mainly a melodrama between her and Jellybean that ended with her telling him she had an abortion after her 1984 VMA performance. There is no mention of her friendships with Martin Burgoyne and Keith Haring. Jellybean's sister Debbie is in the script, but not Debi Mazar. No mention of her relationship with Basquiat either. 

Wow 133 pages. That is well over two hours, I assume there will be trims, though who knows. It honestly sounds like it will be a big production which I am all for. She needs a big budget to tell her story right

Yeah, someone mentioned she was working with another writer. That doesn't mean anyone got fired. Cody could still be responsible for anything from 1% to 99% of the final script. 

Also, the people who said it was insane to direct your own biopic need to shut it.

This is from an "insider" or just a random person? ?

[deathproof 8,368]

This isn’t a blind item when they are basing this on what Rosie said on a recent podcast the other day. Lol

[Prayer 7,660]

A big Hollywood movie goes through lots of changes, script included. Maybe she got Diablo to make a draft and now other writers will come in.

No big drama.

Do you remember the guy's name? I think Rosie mentioned it.

Edit: No it was just fan speculation. Rosie just said Madonna is looking for another writer.

 

Jeremy O Harris is a writer. Could be him...

Whoever does any writing for it will be credited in the movie, so we'll know eventually

The poorly veiled hatred of her in some quarters of the press is never ending. All this based on what Rosie said or is there somethiing else going on?

[musicinferno 2,679]

Madonna fans are being so dramatic about this. EVERY script goes through re-writes and edits and that's probably all it is. I bet it's Madonna's inserts that need edited out anyway (I still cringe at her "Midwestern realness" line).

Lol... unfortunately I can smell the floppness of this from now. I love M but lately everything she does ends up a flop. If only she’s not the director... ???

Maybe the fans who shit on everything she touches might have something to do with that.

I don't really care about this piece of "news". I'll see the final product when it's premiered. And for that we'll need to wait at least two or three lives...

[Shoful 7,421]

I’m so sick of hearing about this. We have no idea what’s going on and this probably happens all the time with a script. Of course multiple writers are involved in a huge movie

[Ayham 3,945]

You know I blame M for this... she’s the one who posted every single meeting with Diablo. Those things must stay secret until the teaser is out. That’s how it works. At least not on IG. Lol. Very unprofessional.

You will be telling a one of the most famous woman, who spend more than 40 years in show-business what is professional or not

Thank you.

Also, it could be the most impressive biopic of all time. Chances are people are still going to bash it and not even give it a chance just because it's Madonna. Welcome to 1983.

Im not sure people said it was insane to direct your own biopic - i think it was very specific - its insane for Madonna (who doesnt have a good track record in film) to get involved in creating a film about her epic music career.  We need an epic director to do that.  I mean, you're comparing Madonna to Steven Spielberg?  Steven Spielberg? The man who made JAWS? Who has won oscar upon oscar for directing?  I completely support and agree with Steven directing his own biopic AND i would be just as excited if HE was chosen to direct Madonna's.

 

 

[Guest Nobody Knows Me]

I don't think that her directing the biopic is a good idea personally but there's no confirmation that Diablo has been fired yet so I guess we'll have to wait and see.

She's too close to the project. The Elton Jon and Queen Biopics worked because they took a step back and had a say as consultants rather than Directors!

[Ayham 3,945]

Don’t @ me if this movie/project ends up canceled or set aside. Yes like any other early projects... now if she didn’t put everything at a very early stage on IG wouldn’t be more easy to deal with it secretly?!?! ?
