Michelle Williams in Talks to Star in Janis Joplin Biopic
Michelle Williams is in early negotiations to play Janis Joplin in an upcoming biopic, Deadline reports. The project will be helmed by Canadian director Sean Durkin, known for winning Sundance Film Festival's Dramatic Directing Award for the 2011 thriller Martha Marcy May Marlene starring Elizabeth Olsen.
Simply titled Janis, the biopic will be based on the Love, Janis book, written by the rock icon's sister Laura Joplin. It is comprised of a series letters written by Janis to her Texas family and friends.
