A new bio pic about the late Judy Garland is being planned. It will be produced by the Weinstein company. Who will they cast as Judy Garland? My pick would be Ginnifer Goodwin, or maybe Kate Perry. Maybe odd choices, but it’s going to be difficult to find someone who looks and sings like she does.

iCeleb Reports:

A biopic that centers on the life of the late actress Judy Garland has been planned. The Weinstein Co. has acquired the film rights to Gerald Clarke’s book “Get Happy: the Life of Judy Garland,” Variety reports.

Published in 2000, the book details how the actress, best known for her role in the 1939 film “The Wizard of Oz,” was plagued with personal problems and the mistreatments she received from employers, family and lovers.

Garland was married five times and suffered financial troubles and substance addictions among many others. She attempted suicide several times. She died in 1969 at the age of 47. Cause of death was “an incautious self-over dosage” of barbiturates.

Judy Garland a Gemini girl, had a bubbly personality. Very intelligent and warm, she struggled with her dark side. Ginnifer Goodwin, also a quirky Gemini girl, would be the perfect fit for the new movie role.

On a personal note, she previously dated actor Chris Klein for two years; they broke up in December 2008. Stay tuned to see who Weinstein picks.
