Angelina Jolie to Play Opera Singer in New Biopic from Spencer Director

Angelina Jolie will be starring in a new opera biopic from director Pablo Larraín. Larraín is a Chilean filmmaker who has been working regularly since the mid-2000s, though he didn't make his English-language feature debut until 2016 with Jackie, which starred Natalie Portman as former First Lady Jackie Kennedy in the days and years following the assassination of her husband, John F. Kennedy. After taking a brief detour to helm the Spanish-language adoption drama Ema in 2019 and the Stephen King miniseries adaptation Lisey's Story in 2021, he returned to English filmmaking with another major biopic: 2021's Spencer, which starred Kristen Stewart as Princess Diana.
