Julia Garner, the twenty-year-old who has been chosen to play Madonna in her biopic

After her fantastic performance as Anna Delvey in Who is Anna?

When the biopic of Elvis Presley is about to be released, the wheel of Hollywood continues and the film where the life of Madonna is told is already being prepared. The queen of pop herself is producing the project and everything seems to indicate that she has already chosen her favorite to play in her younger years. It is none other than Julia Garner, the actress who gave life to Anna Delvey in the Netflix series Who is Anna? , and that she has participated in other prestigious projects such as Ozark or The Americans. The similarity of the actress with the singer of Like a virgin is undeniable, as can be seen in the images that we have compared below, and now it is only a matter of the interpreter accepting the offer that has been put on the table to give life to a character that has marked pop culture for forever.

Madonna confirmed in October that the script for her film was nearly complete, after which casting began. A dozen actresses were being considered to give life to the controversial artist, who began her career in the 80s with such popular themes as Vogue or Holiday, but Julia Garner was selected. The singer was 24 years old when she released her first single, and she was dating visual artist Jean-Michel Basquiat at the time. Since then not only her music but also her personal life became the topics of conversation of the whole world. If finally the actress joins the project, Her co-star could be Julia Fox, Kanye West’s ex, who is in negotiations to play Debi Mazar, a great friend of the Hung Up interpreter.

Julia Garner was born in Riverdale on February 1, 1994, in a residential neighborhood in the Bronx of New York, the fruit of a psychologist mother (who had succeeded when she was young as an actress and comedian in Israel) and a father who is a painter and teacher. She started taking acting classes when she was 15 years old to overcome her shyness and discovered a passion that has taken her far professionally. She started her career more than 10 years ago when she was just a teenager.

Her first film with international relevance was The Perks of Being a Wallflower, where she worked with Ezra Miller and Emma Watson, after which came The Last Exorcism 2 or Sin City: A Dame to Kill For, but starting to get jobs in Hollywood did not stop her desire to continue training and she graduated in psychology at the university. In recent years she has lived her best moment thanks to her move to television (through platforms) she was in WacoThe Americans, and Maniac, among others, and in 2019 she had her first major leading role in a movie, The Assistant, with Matthew Macfadyen. Her great success came with Ozark, where she plays Ruth Langmore, a role for which she has won two Emmy Awards and which served as a sample for her casting in Who is Anna? , the Netflix series that tells the true story of a young woman who posed as a Russian heiress and swindled millions of dollars. 

Although she is not yet in her thirties, Julia Garner has already found the love of her life and is married to the singer of the group Foster the People, Mark Foster, whom she met at the Sundance festival in 2018 and when she was just They had been together for 10 months and got engaged. They were married in a romantic and low-key ceremony at New York City Hall, for which the actress wore a pantsuit, a decision that she was sure Madonna would approve of! For the party they held afterward, on the other hand, she did opt for a dress.
