New Delhi:
Tony nominee and two-time Olivier winner Rupert Goold will direct Renee Zellweger in Judy’, where she will be playing the role of Judy Garland
Judy is based on the true story of the stage and screen icon's final concerts in London.
Judy will narrate Judy Garland's arrival in London in 1968 to perform in a series of sell-out shows. It will also showcase Garland's journey to stardom as she prepares for the concerts, battles with management, charms musicians, and reminisces with friends and adoring fans, while also embarking on a courtship with Mickey Dean.
Based on a script by The Crown scribe Tom Edge, Pathe and Calamity Films are backing the project.
