Summary
Madonna revealed in an Interview magazine article that Universal Pictures killed her planned biopic due to budget disputes. The studio won a multi-studio auction in 2021 to produce the film about Madonna's life, with the singer set to co-write and direct. Multiple screenwriters were attached over the years, and Julia Garner was cast as Madonna in 2022 after a highly-publicized audition process. Madonna says she worked on the script for two years before the project fell apart over budget concerns.
