Michelle Williams to star as Marilyn Monroe

Gorgeous Michelle Williams of ‘Synecdoche New York’ and ‘Brokeback Mountain’ fame is in talks to star as Marilyn Monroe in the flick ‘My Week With Marilyn’ to be directed by Simon Curtis. There are also rumors that Scarlett Johansson was also rumored for the role. The production of the flick will start in June 2010.

The film ‘is based on Colin Clark's best selling book ‘My Week With Marilyn’. Marilyn Monroe acted in several films and been mocked on screen plenty of times, but I think this is the first time we'll see an actual biopic about her.
