| It's like the Barbra Streisand's Gypsy. Every few years the project gets resurrected (in the press/media) and then becomes dormant again. The truth is, that like with Streisand in Gypsy, the ship has sailed. While I am sure it could have been a great performance, she is too old for this part now. If this ever gets made, it will be received as a bizarre vanity project and I bet it will lose a lot of money. If you want to do Sunset today, you need to find a movie star that is still relevant - someone in her 50s that can sing and act the hell out of this part. At this point, there are other actress over 50 who can sing well and will be better suited... maybe Cate Blanchett (who will be 50 by the time this gets made) or Michelle Pfeiffer. And, if going for someone older, there's always Meryl Strip. People can say that they're tired of her already but she will make an amazing Norma. |
