    Madonna Teams Up With Shawn Levy and Netflix For a Limited Series Based on Her Life: Report

    Madonna fans have been waiting for years to see the Queen of Pop get her very own biopic — and according to a new report, they may finally getting to see one.

    According to a report from Deadline on Monday (May 12), Madonna has teamed up with Deadpool & Wolverine producer Shawn Levy to develop a limited series based on her life and career for Netflix. Levy’s production company 21 Laps currently has an exclusive deal with Netflix.

    Billboard reached out to representatives for Madonna and Netflix for comment.

    The new project is apparently not related to much-discussed and since-delayed feature film based on Madonna’s life. The project, which was being developed by Universal Pictures and set to star Ozark and Inventing Anna actress Julia Garner as the pop superstar, was put on an indefinite hold in 2023 as Madonna embarked on her Celebration World Tour.

    In 2024, however, Madonna sparked rumors that the film might be back in the works, when she shared a since-deleted photo of herself sitting at a typewriter working on a screenplay titled Who’s That Girl — an apparent nod to her 1987 film and song of the same name.

    Still, Madonna herself floated the idea of creating a TV series about her life in November of last year, claiming that a number of “producers and agents” told her that she wouldn’t be able to make her film the way she wanted to. “Downsize-down scale-think smaller-they say—I realized that everything in my life is going to be challenged,” she wrote in a since-removed post, before asking her fans if they would prefer to see her story adapted into “a series or a feature film.”
