First, a few more details that will help you make an informed casting decision: Lady Gaga will have no involvement in the project if it is greenlit. The Lady Gaga Story will be based on Maureen Callahan's 2010 biography Poker Face: The Rise And Rise Of Lady Gaga with Ilene Kahn Power (Gia, Who Is Clark Rockefeller?) executive producing. According to Deadline, the project will chronicle the life of Germanotta, who started her musical career as a singer-songwriter rocker/performance artist and later was transformed into pop mega star Lady Gaga.
Movieline HQ has tossed around a few names including Kreayshawn -- the MTV Video Music Award-nominated Bay area rapper/artist/filmmaker who bares a striking resemblance to Gaga and might be attainable for the channel. What are your suggestions? Ready, set, cast!
