If you loved the film ‘Jerry McGuire’ and ‘Bridget Jones’s Diary’ then you must love Renee Zellweger. This wonderful actress is in the news this week as she’s signed on to portray one American’s greatest singers, Judy Garland, in ‘Judy’ a biopic. The crew has already begun shooting on set in London, and the film will take us back to the late 60’s as Judy arrives in the UK for a spectacular run of sell-out concerts.
Judy Garland led an incredible life, rising to international fame in the ‘Wizard of Oz,’ earning her place as America’s darling singer and celebrity in the 40s and 50s, running through countless marriages, finally takin her own life in June of 1969 at the tender age of 47.
Rene will co-star in Judy, set to be released late 2018, with Rufus Sewell, Michael Gambon, and Finn Wittrock. Renee has earned an Oscar, three Critic‘s Choice, Golden Globe and SAG wards during her durable career. ‘Judy’ will be a film you’ll want to see when it opens later this year.
