The most popular American-made music biopics

The best-selling 2023 memoir 'The Woman in Me,' by the one and only Britney Spears, has been picked up by Universal Pictures. The studio secured the rights to the singer's book and has announced Jon M. Chu as the director. Chu is known for directing movies like 'Crazy Rich Asians' (2018) and the upcoming musical film 'Wicked' starring Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo. The actress who will play Spears has yet to be determined but the singer reportedly reserves veto rights when it comes to who will take on the starring role. The project is still in its infancy and very few details are available as of yet. However, producer Marc Platt is also on board, and both he and Chu have a history of creating musical movies. There's speculation that they may have snagged the rights to Britney's catalog and are planning to bring the biopic to life with her music. Platt also worked on 'Wicked' (2024), as well as 'The Little Mermaid' (2023) and 'Dear Evan Hansen' (2021). Biographical films are so beloved because they unearth the deeply complex, violent, exciting, and inspiring worlds that lie beneath artists' songs. Check out this gallery to see some of the most popular American-made biographical films about legendary musicians.

The best sad songs to cry to

Whether it's a devastating breakup, a melancholic memory of a loved one, or a general anguish about existence, there's a minor chord for you.
