Last month, we came upon that the Madonna-directed biopic about Madonna had been scrapped in favor of Madonna’s international biggest hits tour, even after Julia Garner was seemingly solid within the lead position. The record of individuals requested to audition to play Madonna was lengthy — rumors flew throughout casting that Sydney Sweeney, Alexa Demi, Odessa Young, and Emma Laird all auditioned, as did musicians Sky Ferreira and Bebe Rexha.
Another title on that record was Snail Mail’s Lindsey Jordan, who talked a bit concerning the audition course of for the movie in a brand new interview with Inked journal. “I’m a huge Madonna fan,” Jordan mentioned. “I had to come up with a dance routine based on one of her music videos — I had to look at what she was doing but not imitate it, but be inspired by it. She’s a dance legend. I watched a documentary. I was watching interviews with her. I was taking notes and I had to do three scenes. It was a good learning experience. I didn’t think I’d get the role, but if I didn’t work hard I’d feel bad for not giving it my all.”
Though she didn’t land the Madonna position, Jordan shall be making her feature-film debut within the upcoming movie I Saw The TV Glow, the following venture from We’ve All Going To The World’s Fair director Jane Schoenbrun. “I did an actual role in that, which is crazy, and I went through the audition process,” Jordan informed Inked. I didn’t count on to have any sort of chops, and actually, who is aware of if I do? I haven’t seen it but. It’s simply enjoyable and thrilling. I need to see what I can do. Movies are up there for me with music. I believe it’d be cool to jot down screenplays. I really feel just like the world is type of my oyster proper now and I need to benefit from it.”
Earlier this month, Snail Mail threw a five-night residency in Baltimore referred to as Valentine Fest, the place she carried out with Soccer Mommy, Mac DeMarco, and Waxahatchee.
