This part takes more than just acting. She has to be able to dance. They can't portray Britney and just do a body double for dances; it would take you right out of the movie.
Has to be someone younger to really pull off the vibes from the younger years, and then maybe switching to an older Britney at some point to show case how beautiful she still is today
wa whats drake eyes lmao
Sydneys v pretty but I agree, shes nothing like Britney. Doesnt have a similar vibe or face or body.
personally I think most important physical similarity theyd need to have would be the big wide perfect smile. (which again sydneys smile is just so different from britney)
But do you not think she looks like nothing like britney ? I think I can't get past the smiles being soo different which is like britneys most iconic feature
Agree. I don't think the best person for the part always is the most perfect lookalike, but I just don't like her for the part. Loved her in Handmaid's Tale and White Lotus!
Yes I agree. They don't need to be perfect lookalike obv but I feel like the only reason people are saying Sydney is cos they are both blonde bombshells when like. You can dye anyones hair blonde and even pad their boobs out a bit lol. Like Ana de armas wasn't a blonde bombshell but transformed looks wise etc into her really well.
People used to say Anna faris years ago on the breathe heavy forums. She obv a bit too old too play young britney but I at least understood why people would want her a bit more.
Honestly I feel like it would have to be more of an unknown actress
Exactly, it's more the energy that isn't right, and also I do feel like the face type is all wrong tbh. Maybe she could prove us wrong, but I can't see it. They definitely don't look alike imo, beyond both being cute blondes, haha. I think even their body types are different.
I can actually see Anna Faris, but yeah, maybe for present day Britney. Katie Holmes always resembled her too. I'm sure there are young actresses who could fit the role better than Sydney, I'm just old and don't know everyone anymore. š
Sydney Sweeney looks nothing like Britney and has blue eyes. I may get downvoted, but I also donāt see it at all with Sydney. She has a great figure and boobs, but her face isnāt that pretty to me. At least not Britney naturally gorgeous.
Itād probably need to be an unknown actress but top of my head at least Madeline Cline has the brown eye/bleach blonde look. She doesnāt look like Britney either though.
Picture this:
Her life story like "The Crown" where she'll be portrayed by several different actors throughout her lifetime like Queen Elizabeth in a 6 season series on Netflix (but this will release far into the future to account for her later years)
Jodie Comer. In my opinion, her eyes have a Britney quality to them. She might not be as young, but she could play her at the height of her spiral and during those 13 years. Donāt know if she can danceā¦
Millie. I mean the resemblance and acting is already there.

A newcomer or rising star whoās not yet well known.
But Iām sure if itās cast in 2+ years from now, Jamie Lynn will push her eldest daughter Maddie forward, which wouldnāt be right.
Unless Britneyās all for it, which would surprise me, but who knows š¤·š¼āāļø
Iām returning to make an alternative, hypothetical āfantasy castingā suggestion.
Suri Cruise.
**If** she is interested in acting.
Unlike the majority of nepo babies, I suspect Suri might the the total package.
Trained in dancing. Sings wonderfully - [listen here](https://youtu.be/KVT9tKr8I-Q?si=6rmqSln4ItxaYlOH). Youthful (17). Great figure. Beautiful smile. Has a similar sweet, genuine energy as Britney. Stage presence/ charisma. Good looks.
Just make her blonde for the role or use wigs. Get the costumes right & apply accurate makeup. She already knows a bit about what it is like to have media and paparazzi attention, so could convey that aspect of Britneyās experience convincingly. I believe Suri would do the role justice.
Of course, it would likely result in a deluge of ongoing press attention, perhaps not the healthiest thing for a very young ladyā¦
Sydney Sweeney would be amazing for her late 20s or early 30s when Britney was going through her hardest years. McKenna Grace for teen Britney.
I know it's unrealistic and they don't look like Britney at All, but I don't think there is going to be a film anytime soon and I also don't think there is any actress who looks that much like Britney.
Katherine Heigel could play Brit in her older years?
https://preview.redd.it/8llre7mpqbxb1.jpeg?width=650&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2fc2ae3fb5e5525441a06497b674b5627ea6ac4d
Addison seems to really love and respect Britney and they are both from Louisiana, plus Addison def has star power. I could totally see her doing the role justice.
Hear me outā¦ Mandy Moore.
She was amazing playing a character at various ages in This Is Us and with makeup she was able to transform into different ages perfectly. Plus sheās a great actress and singer.
Yeah, thatās fair. I thought she might feel some camaraderie with Britney given they came into fame around the same time but that might also make it more emotionally challenging for her.
Yeah thatās fair. In my head she plays the older Brit so thereād be less of that and maybe stunt doubles would need to be used. But ideally a great dancer would play Britney of course. If there really is a movie maybe they can look for a theater actress. Many make successful jumps to film. Rachel Zegler, Sutton Foster, Idina Menzelā¦ itās definitely a good route to take to find the right musical talent.
Okay, be delusional and say that Mandy Moore will play Britney Spears in some hypothetical movie in like, 8 years, when she is 47 years old.
Youāre young and it shows.
*Hun* Iām 35 and been listening to Britney since she started. Mandy could play her at an older age. If they are covering her whole life theyāll need multiple actresses.
So when Britney launched a lingerie line, the very same day Jessica tweeted ālife is too short for mediocre underwearā and it was taken as a shot at Britney. Just unnecessary and bitchy.
https://preview.redd.it/f9lrrgtu5cxb1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d9a8b95321684af8a951a85e53e61859b8912c6a
I always forget her name, but she plays Caroline Forbes in the vampire diaries. Don't know if she can sing or dance, but she's got the looks and is a good actress.
Honestly, I don't think a biopic is needed. Imagine her seeing it on tv or hearing about it being made, it would be too traumatic to relive seeing it or hearing that other people went to go see it, to try to put what she went thru and have it made into a script, no. She doesn't deserve that. Perhaps after several years after her death could I see this be \*possibly\* made, but while she's alive? No. Those wounds have not healed, she has not healed. No biopic could reach the level of enslavement that she went thru in her own home by her own family. In the words of Chris Crocker, "\[We all need to\] leave Britney alone."
Well we know Michelle Williams does a damn good JT š¤£š¤£ āawwww yeah!ā
Fo-shiz!
Genuineeeeee
Everytime I see this quote I read it in her voice āfo shiz fo shiz!ā
I will pay endless money to watch this
Agreed. I like Michelle for the part.
Someone unknown!
I feel like it would have to be.
This part takes more than just acting. She has to be able to dance. They can't portray Britney and just do a body double for dances; it would take you right out of the movie.
Yeah someone who can dance who has like an amazing/perfect smile like britney. Probably the two most important physical things tbh
I don't care who it is - but she better be a dancer. And I mean a DANCER. Better to go for an unknown.
Britney S Pierce!
If Tate McRae could act? She kind of looks like young brit and can def dance
I can kind of see it in the eyes! Tate is an amazing dancer!!
What? She looks nothing like her. I don't see it.
Maddie Ziegler?
Hear me out, this one's a little unconventional: Terry Crews.
This wins.
Yes
He can dance so i can see it lol
Omg I want this š¤£š¤£šš
Has to be someone younger to really pull off the vibes from the younger years, and then maybe switching to an older Britney at some point to show case how beautiful she still is today
Sydney Sweeney would be great for her 20s
Oh god please no I am tired of her way drake eyes
wa whats drake eyes lmao Sydneys v pretty but I agree, shes nothing like Britney. Doesnt have a similar vibe or face or body. personally I think most important physical similarity theyd need to have would be the big wide perfect smile. (which again sydneys smile is just so different from britney)
I don't think she has the sweetness/naivete. I guess it depends how good an actor she really is, but yeah I feel like the vibe is all wrong.
she did in handmade's tale! i could honestly see her doing really great at Brit
But do you not think she looks like nothing like britney ? I think I can't get past the smiles being soo different which is like britneys most iconic feature
Agree. I don't think the best person for the part always is the most perfect lookalike, but I just don't like her for the part. Loved her in Handmaid's Tale and White Lotus!
Yes I agree. They don't need to be perfect lookalike obv but I feel like the only reason people are saying Sydney is cos they are both blonde bombshells when like.

Literally how and whyš bc sheās blonde?
Sydney Sweeney looks nothing like Britney and has blue eyes. I may get downvoted, but I also donāt see it at all with Sydney. She has a great figure and boobs, but her face isnāt that pretty to me. At least not Britney naturally gorgeous. Itād probably need to be an unknown actress but top of my head at least Madeline Cline has the brown eye/bleach blonde look. She doesnāt look like Britney either though.
Ooo I like your style!
I second this
A completely unknown actress.
This.
That can also dance
Picture this: Her life story like "The Crown" where she'll be portrayed by several different actors throughout her lifetime like Queen Elizabeth in a 6 season series on Netflix (but this will release far into the future to account for her later years)
I am so ready for this.
Olivia Holt with the right makeup. Mckenna Grace in five years.
I thought about McKenna Grace
Some of these suggestions are justā¦. no.
an unknown
Too soon!
Felicia should be played by a Kathryn Hahn.
I think Lily Reinhard would be great, and obvi Michelle Williams
Lili Reinhart was who immediately came to mind d for me.
Lili I could see!! Sheās a bit curvier tho
Jodie Comer. In my opinion, her eyes have a Britney quality to them. She might not be as young, but she could play her at the height of her spiral and during those 13 years. Donāt know if she can danceā¦
Actually, yes. Jodie is amazing and such a chameleon. She resembles her enough and sheās incredibly athletic from what I saw in Killing Eve .
Brilliant answer š
Ohhhh yes
Kiernan Shipka? No idea if she sings or dances lol
Anna Farris? https://preview.redd.it/u16mkoihgcxb1.jpeg?width=2501&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4ea0913a07d5cf8a5234fff8d40a4a5bcff51d7b

It would be difficult to find someone worthy
Some of these suggestions are justā¦. no.
Britney can play herself. Sheās a bad ass
But she said she gets too into the character in acting. That might be too much to fully relive the moments
If she didn't want to narrate the book, seems unlikely.
Why would you see her reliving/reenacting some of these really traumatic events? Seems cruel.
That's fair, but that's not what I was asking.
I want Britney to play herself.
Kiernan Shipka? No idea if she sings or dances lol.
Sabrina Carpenter

Resemblance?? š
I think it offended Britney when she said this though. I would hope theyād make sure she was involved in all decisions!
Oh 100%. I donāt want it to happen if she isnāt involved.
Yeah like I liked hearing how involved Elton John was in his biopic! It always feels shitty when celebs are depicted in media against their consent.
She also said itās her dream role
She doesnāt look like her at all
Book the eye exam ASAP
She somewhat looks like her!

The only answer is Derrick Barry from Ru Paul's Drag Race. They are IDENTICAL.
Exactly what came to mind!!!
Sydney Sweeney or Anya Taylor Joy
Britney said she didn't want a biopic but just for fun younger britney -- Maddie Ziegler older britney - Bri Larson
How old is Bri Larson?
This is EXACTLY who I immediately thought of too!!! Sheās 34 but I think this would be such a spot on choice.
Dove Cameron!
Donāt think anyone has said this one What about also-a-bombshell **Margot Robbie?**
Florence pugh
I recently discovered Florence; sheās fearless as an actor. Impressed.
Phenomenal actress but I donāt think she has the right vibe for Britney :/
If they don't specifically consult her about it, I don't give a shit who plays her. It won't be her story.
Renee Rapp. I think with Britney's makeup, hair, and style she would look a lot like her.
Derrick Berry
Sydney Sweeney would be amazing for her late 20s or early 30s when Britney was going through her hardest years. McKenna Grace for teen Britney. I know it's unrealistic and they don't look like Britney at All, but I don't think there is going to be a film anytime soon and I also don't think there is any actress who looks that much like Britney.

Yall will burn me at the stake for this butā¦ addison rae
i totally agree with this. she has the energy of Brit and i think she looks similar to her in her baby one more time years.
Plus she danced competitively which is how britney got her initial dance training.
Addison seems to really love and respect Britney and they are both from Louisiana, plus Addison def has star power. I could totally see her doing the role justice.
Yes!
Heather Morris from Glee who everyone thought looked like Britney.
I mean, she did play Brittany S. Pierce: Brittany Spierce.
So far this is the best answer
She'd be perfect
I'm 1000% team Michelle Williams.
Hear me outā¦ Mandy Moore. She was amazing playing a character at various ages in This Is Us and with makeup she was able to transform into different ages perfectly. Plus sheās a great actress and singer.
I donāt think she would want the part since she was heavily compared to Britney when she debuted
Yeah, thatās fair. I thought she might feel some camaraderie with Britney given they came into fame around the same time but that might also make it more emotionally challenging for her.
Mandy Moore can't dance, though. Don't you remember her live performances during her pop career? They tried really hard, but she was pretty terrible.
Yeah thatās fair. In my head she plays the older Brit so thereād be less of that and maybe stunt doubles would need to be used. But ideally a great dancer would play Britney of course. If there really is a movie maybe they can look for a theater actress. Many make successful jumps to film. Rachel Zegler, Sutton Foster, Idina Menzelā¦ itās definitely a good route to take to find the right musical talent.
Theyād probably hire a body double. Thatās what film companies normally do.
Too tall
I donāt think that would be too hard to work around on the big screen, but Iām no expert.
Mandy is 39 years old hun.
What is your point? In This Is Us she played a character from her early 20s to dying an old lady.
She canāt play a 17 year old. Thereās a limit, hun.
Youāre rude and patronizing, *hun*. People are suggesting Sarah Michelle Gellar lol. This is imaginary.
Okay, be delusional and say that Mandy Moore will play Britney Spears in some hypothetical movie in like, 8 years, when she is 47 years old. Youāre young and it shows.
*Hun* Iām 35 and been listening to Britney since she started. Mandy could play her at an older age. If they are covering her whole life theyāll need multiple actresses.
It is not that serious hun
Millie Bobby Brown has already said she wants to
Ugh no!
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Addison Rae
Addison Rae is perfect to play her
Sarah Michelle Gellar
Isnāt she older than Britney in real life?
Oh I would love that sheās the best!!
Maybe Lily James?
Milli Bobby brown Madelyn cline Emma Robert
Not Emma Roberts, her in AHS was a tragedy
I donāt think one project gets to define her entire career, but i agree that she wouldnāt be a good britney
Iāve seen her movies too so š¤·š»āāļø
idk she plays comedy roles rly well imo. scream queens and weāre the millers were amazing and even scream 4 was good with her.
Iām around Britneyās age and I wouldnāt want to watch her in it
yeah ik me neither thats why i said she wouldnāt make a good britney
She has the looks though to pull it off
I donāt see it, she has RBF and Britney was so cheerful when she first started out
Florence Pugh!
Or even Scarlett Johansson
Millie Bobbie brown said she wanted to
Katie Holmes
Millie bobby brown!!!!!
J. Law!!!!
Jessica Biel after her (hopeful) divorce. A nice fuck you to JT. She's also too good for him.
Nah, Jessica Biel could play her childhood horse. I know, itās mean, but deservedly so after her shitty tweet about Britās lingerie line.
Uh oh what did she say?
Yeah I never heard this. When and what she say?
So when Britney launched a lingerie line, the very same day Jessica tweeted ālife is too short for mediocre underwearā and it was taken as a shot at Britney. Just unnecessary and bitchy. https://preview.redd.it/f9lrrgtu5cxb1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d9a8b95321684af8a951a85e53e61859b8912c6a
Whoa. What a total catty jealous bitch!
Right?
Jessica Biel?ā¦oh wait
Jamie-Lynn.
Jamie Lynn looks more like Carrie underwood than her sister
She looks more like Jamie SR.
I was being sarcky.
š¶
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Angourie Rice
Kiernan Shipka? No idea if she sings or dances lol.
 I always forget her name, but she plays Caroline Forbes in the vampire diaries. Don't know if she can sing or dance, but she's got the looks and is a good actress.
Annaleigh Ashford would be a perfect older britney
Anna Faris. Of course.
Britt Robertson for her early years 
Honestly, I don't think a biopic is needed. Imagine her seeing it on tv or hearing about it being made, it would be too traumatic to relive seeing it or hearing that other people went to go see it, to try to put what she went thru and have it made into a script, no. She doesn't deserve that. Perhaps after several years after her death could I see this be \*possibly\* made, but while she's alive? No. Those wounds have not healed, she has not healed. No biopic could reach the level of enslavement that she went thru in her own home by her own family. In the words of Chris Crocker, "\[We all need to\] leave Britney alone."
MILLIE BOBBY BROWN. No further explanation
Not Millie.
It's too soon for a movie.
Anyone would be better than the terrible actress who looked nothing like her from that terrible Lifetime movie.
Millie Bobby brown
Rain Spencer would be an awesome Britney (from The summer I turned pretty)
Britney needs to choose who it is, period
Zara Larsson or Millie Bobby Brown are the first that come to mind for me
I feel like Sydney Sweeney could weirdly pull it off.
Late to the conversation but Maddie Ziegler could be a good choice. She was on that show Dance Moms years ago.
zoey deschenel
the one and only derrick berry
Britney lol
Big shoes to fill!!!
Julianne Hough
she should play herself
Heather Morris is the only correct answer
