Universal Pictures has secured the rights to Blond Ambition, a Madonna biopic script from Elyse Hollander, per a report from The Hollywood Reporter .
Official Logline:
In 1980s New York, Madonna struggles to get her first album released while navigating fame, romance, and a music industry that views women as disposal.
Born Madonna Louise Ciccone, Madonna released her eponymous first album in 1982 and went on to become the best-selling female artist of all time (as well as the fourth best-selling artist overall, behind only The Beatles, Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley).
It should be noted that, while today’s trade report spells the title as Blonde Ambition, the script was originally listed as Blond Ambition (without an “e”). The latter, however, is the way that Madonna titled her 1990 tour.
Blond Ambition, which does not yet have a director, will be produced by Michael De Luca alongside Brett Ratner and his RatPac Entertainment and John Zaozirny and his Bellvue Productions.
