A sneak peak of details into the Selena Gomez starrer biopic

In a twist of fate, Selena Gomez, the singer-turned-actress, recently revealed that she is ready to don a new hat. The singer is all set to step into the legendary shoes of music icon Linda Ronstadt for an upcoming biopic. As per Rolling Stone, the film’s narrative is currently weaving its threads in the loom of pre-production as the release date remains yet to be unveiled. The cast remains a riddle as well as Ronstadt’s personal involvement.

The revelation came after Gomez casually dropped hints on her Instagram Story, engrossed in Ronstadt’s memoir, Simple Dreams. Following in her bestfriend Taylor Swift’s acting crescendo, Gomez is setting the stage for the buzz that followed. The singer’s transition from pop royalty to portraying a trailblazer in the world of rock, country, and Latin music added a new note to her ever-evolving artistic journey.

‘The Heart Wants What It Wants’ singer may be enhancing her credentials with the Ronstadt biopic. However, Ronstadt, once a powerhouse in the music industry, took a backseat to her singing career for various reasons.

Linda Ronstadt- The backstory

Gomez is all geared up to step into the shoes of the legendary Ronstadt in an eagerly anticipated biopic. Ronstadt, a musical icon with American-Mexican roots, took a bow from the stage in 2011 due to the relentless grip of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), putting a halt to her melodic journey. With a career spanning over five decades, she snagged an impressive 11 Grammy Awards. Moreover, she left an indelible mark on the music scene with her country, rock, and Latin tunes.

Despite hanging up the microphone, Ronstadt’s legacy continued to echo through chart-topping hits like ‘When Will I Be Loved’ and ‘Blue Bayou’. Her musical journey was adorned with accolades such as the Latin Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award and a prestigious spot in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Gomez’s upcoming portrayal holds the promise of capturing the very essence of this iconic “Queen of Rock”. Furthermore, adding a fresh chapter to Ronstadt’s storied past.
