After it became a best-selling book within days of its release on the market, a major bidding war broke out between major American film and television production studios to buy the rights to American pop singer Britney Spears’ memoir “The Woman In Me,” with the aim of turning it into a dramatic film, a documentary, or even a book. TV series.
According to Deadline magazine, Spears’ media office received many requests to discuss the offers only a week after the book was released in markets and electronic stores. While the magazine did not disclose the names of the companies that submitted the offers, it is likely that the competition will primarily be between “Netflix,” “Warner Brothers,” “Paramount,” and even “Amazon Prime” and “Disney.”
Many sources suggested that this fierce competition to buy the rights to her memoirs was the first time that she spoke openly and frankly about the hidden aspects of her life, while Spears had previously been the subject of many previous documentaries that focused on the time of parental guardianship over her.
The sources explained that after the many surprises that Spears revealed in her memoirs, it is not unlikely that companies’ efforts will focus on purchasing the rights to the book, with the aim of producing a work that highlights her transformation from a famous pop singer into a “songbird in shackles.” The new work will undoubtedly focus on the period of conservatorship that kept Spears restricted in her personal and professional life for more than 12 years.
The sources expected that the new film would be a huge work, different from the two documentaries that were released about Britney’s life during the time of the conservatorship, and helped stimulate the “Free Britney” movement to end the conservatorship.
