Madonna is going to direct another movie
It’s been a few years, but Deadline is reporting that Madonna is about to return to her first and greatest love: directing feature films. Just 10 years after Filth And Wisdom (which wasn’t so good) and seven years after W.E. (which also wasn’t so good), Madonna has signed on to direct a movie for MGM called Taking Flight. The Deadline story says it’s based on the true story of Michaela DePrince, a woman who “grew up an orphan in war-torn Sierra Leone but rose to become a world-renowned ballerina,” and Camilla Blackett—a writer for New Girl and Fresh Off The Boat—will adapt it from DePrince’s 2014 memoir of the same name.
