Britney Spears' biopic plan



Britney Spears is set to star in a film of her life.

The 'Womanizer' singer will relive some of the most traumatic events in her life - including her breakdown earlier this year, which saw her lose custody of her two sons Sean Preston, three, and Jayden James, two - for the biopic, which is being made by British director Phil Griffin.

A source said: "It's the film everyone will be queuing to see. It will be dark and gritty - charting Britney's devastating falls including her traumatic custody battle for her two children.

"Let's just say it will not be for the faint-hearted. But it will also show the highs along her incredible life journey."

Although filmmakers were initially concerned Britney - whose father Jamie is still acting as co-conservator of her estate following her breakdown - might not be strong enough to revisit her past troubles, the 26-year-old singer is said to be keen to star in the project.

The source added to Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "If anything it will be cathartic for Britney. She has been through so much and is finally back to her best.

"This will be her ultimate chance to prove to the world she's still got it."

Britney's new album 'Circus' will be released next month, followed by a world tour to promote it.

Earlier this month, it was claimed Britney's mother Lynne Spears was in talks to make her tell-all book about her daughter into a film.

Britney was said to be furious Anna Faris was being lined up to play her in the big screen version of revealing tome 'Through The Storm'.

Lynne is keen for Julia Roberts to portray her in the movie.
