While there’s no word on a release date or casting decisions just yet, Spears has reportedly pocketed at least $10 million from the deal, and will have a say in the final casting call.

Spears’ memoir, which was released in October 2023, offers a candid look at her life, including her experiences with her father’s alleged abuse and conservatorship.

The book has been a massive success, selling over 2.5 million copies in the United States alone, with the audiobook becoming the fastest-selling in Simon & Schuster’s history.

Spears announced the news of the film adaptation on social media, expressing her excitement to work with Platt, who has produced some of her favorite movies.

Chu and Platt have previously collaborated on the upcoming movie version of the Wicked musical, which stars Ariana Grande.

With Chu’s direction and Platt’s production, fans can expect a high-quality adaptation of Spears’ memoir.
