Mikey Madison is basking in the glory of her Oscar win at 25 for her role in Sean Baker's Anora. Her victory has caught the attention of top filmmakers, including Greta Gerre and Colleen Hoover, who are reportedly eyeing her for upcoming projects. While fans are excited about the prospect of Madison working with Gerre, they are skeptical about a collaboration with Hoover.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Madison is in the running for a role in an adaptation of author Colleen Hoover's work.?The latest reports of Madison being considered for a role in a Hoover adaptation come amidst a flurry of activity surrounding the author's work.
Recently, it was reported that her psychological thriller Verity, starring Anne Hathaway and Josh Hartnett, has begun filming. Meanwhile, the upcoming film adaptation of It Stars With Us, a sequel to It Ends With Us starring Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, continues to generate buzz and controversy.
The report adds that Madison has also piqued the interest of director Greta Gerwig, who is coming off the huge success of Barbie. Although the specific project remains under wraps, Gerwig is currently casting for her highly anticipated Netflix adaptation of The Chronicles of Narnia series.
Reports suggest that Gerwig is seeking two child actors in the UK, likely to play Digory and Polly in The Magician's Nephew. While Madison wouldn't be a fit for these roles, there's still a possibility she could be involved in another part of the Narnia saga or a different project led by the filmmaker.
While fans were thrilled to learn about Greta Gerwig reportedly courting Madison for her next, they weren't exactly pleased about Colleen Hoover's rumored offer. While Greta has an impressive female-centric filmography, including films like Barbie and Greta Gerwig, many have deemed Hoover's work objectionable, and recent controversy surrounding her film It Ends With Us doesn't work in her favor either.
Reacting to a post titled Mikey Madison eyed by both Colleen Hoover & Greta Gerwig for separate upcoming projects, THR reports on subreddit r/Fauxmoi, one person wrote, "Run from Colleen Hoover, girl!!"
Another added, "Yes to Greta, respectful no to Colleen."
"Mikey you literally just won an Oscar last night, you don¡¯t need to be in a Colleen Hoover book adaptation!!!" a third commented.
Another Redditor commented, "It seems like Mikey emphasized in her interviews this awards season that she was grateful to be in a place where she was getting a lot of offers and had been taking her time considering them since the start of awards season; that makes me think that she's thoughtful enough to run as far away from Colleen Hoover as she possibly can lol."
