It happens.
Cher is the latest musical diva to receive the big Hollywood biopic because she’s DEAR, okay? (Strongly implied hair flip). It was only a matter of time.
The singer and actress, who is celebrating her 75th birthday this week, announced on social media that Universal Pictures is going big on the film, which will tell the story of her unprecedented career.

Although it doesn’t have a name or script yet, the project will be produced by Judy Craymer and Gary Goetzman (Mamma Mia). Cher will also be a producer.
Oscar-winning screenwriter Eric Roth (Forrest Gump, The Insider, Munich) is going to lend his pen and we already have goose bumps.
Cher broke the news to her nearly four million Twitter followers, writing, “Okay Universal is doing a biopic with my friends. JUDY CRAYMER, GARY GOETZMAN PRODUCTION. THEY produced both Mamma Mias, & MY DEAR FRIEND 4 YEARS OLD, and OSCAR WINNER..ERIC ROTH WILL 2 WRITE IT. Forrest Gump, A Star Is Born, Suspected Of NAMING A FEW MOVIES. “
