When it comes to the movies, television shows, and books that we’re anxiously awaiting the list is very, very long. Almost too long, we’d say. We know that a lot of different things get us excited and it’s something that we embrace. One thing that we have expressed time and time again that we can’t wait to see come to life is the adaptation of Britney Spears‘s autobiography, The Woman in Me.
We’re pretty sure that everyone has an opinion about who would be good to play the pop superstar. It is a life-changing role because that movie will be everywhere. It is a movie that everyone wants to see and that everyone will be talking about.
One person that we hadn’t ever thought of taking on that role is Olivia Holt. However, with Holt expressing interest in the role, now we can’t unsee it.
“I would be so honored to play Britney,” she told Variety‘s Marc Malkin at the screening of her latest movie, Heart Eyes. “I’m just so grateful to be in the running and around so many names and talent who are in the running for it. Just the idea that I am on people’s minds to play something as iconic as this, would be a dream.”
Olivia Holt also made it clear she knows Britney’s music. When asked about her favorite Britney Spears song, she had an answer ready.
“I could go way back and we can do a little I’m Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman. That’s kind of my favorite,” she said. “But I also love the Circus era. There are so many eras of Britney. How could you choose?”
We wouldn’t be able to choose either. It totally depends on what is happening in our lives.
What about you? Who do you think should play Britney? Do you like Olivia Holt for the role?
