Speaking to E! Online, Minogue said that should a biopic focused on the Australian singer-songwriter’s life be green-lit, she would cast a fellow Australian actress as herself. The top candidate currently, is Barbie star Margot Robbie. (NME)
“Margot Robbie in my dreams. She’d have the Australian accent down, that’s for sure,” Minogue told E! Online. A Kylie Minogue biopic has not been announced.
Elsewhere in the interview, Minogue spoke of who she would love collaborate with in music. “Most collaborations I’ve done have come to me, so I haven’t had to make that decision,” she said. “But whoever I work with. There’s always something to learn.” However, she did go on to name Beyoncé and Rihanna as dream collaborations.
Kylie Minogue most recently announced her first-ever Las Vegas residency at the new Voltaire nightclub at The Venetian between November and January.
Instead Margot Robbie says “Would be fun” to play Stevie Nicks in a biopic"
Actor Margot Robbie has revealed to NME which musician she’d most like to play on-screen. Watch the exclusive interview in full above.
The actor whose big break came with Martin Scorsese The Wolf of Wall Street recently promoted her latest movie alongside Leonardo DiCaprio, Babylon. Directed by La La Lands Damien Chazelle, the Movie is an epic comedy-drama that chronicles the rise and fall of a cast of characters during Hollywood’s transition from silent to sound cinema.
Famous for roles in films like The Wolf Of Wall Street and I, Tonya, as well as the psychotic anti-hero Harley Quinn in DC’s superhero films, Robbie was speaking to NME in promotion of filmmaker Damien Chazelle’s Old Hollywood epic Babylon when asked about a potential music biopic.
“Stevie Nicks would be fun,” she said. “I think everyone has been trying to do a Janis Joplin [movie] for a long time too.”
Neither Nicks nor Fleetwood Mac have yet been immortalised in their own biopics, though it was rumoured in 2011 that Lindsay Lohan had signed up to play the singer. Nicks later denied the rumours.
