Selena Gomez Will Play Linda Ronstadt in New Biopic

Selena Gomez, the pop sensation and “Only Murders in the Building” extraordinaire, dropped a bomb on us via Instagram. A sly post with a pic of Linda Ronstadt’s 2013 memoir, “Simple Dreams,” left me wondering, “What’s Selena up to now?”

But wait, it gets better. Linda Ronstadt’s social media accounts joined the party, sharing the news with a spot on caption, “It all started with a simple dream.” Well, Linda, if that’s not the perfect tease for a biopic, I don’t know what is.

I’ve learned that this biopic is in pre-production mode, and it’s got some heavy hitters calling the shots. We’re talking about John Boylan, Ronstadt’s manager extraordinaire, and James Keach, the genius behind the 2019 documentary “Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice.” These folks know how to make magic happen on the big screen.


Now, here’s a fun twist – both Ronstadt and Gomez share a bit of that Mexican magic in their blood. It’s like destiny wrapped up in a tortilla – spicy and full of flavor. Who would’ve thought? These two are bringing the sizzle to Hollywood, and we’re here for it!
So, grab your popcorn, Selena Gomez as Linda Ronstadt? Gurrrrl, it’s not just a biopic; it’s a vibe, a mood, a celebration of two fierce Mexican queens making waves in the world. Stay tuned, because this is gonna be one blockbuster biopic that’s gonna have us all saying, “Simple dreams? More like spectacular dreams!”
