However, the pandemic's onset caused conversations to be delayed, and she ultimately changed her mind.However, the music icon and philanthropist has not given up hope on seeing it come to life.Parton previously gave hope to other actors, saying that the project would need several women to portray her throughout her long career, showcasing her journey perfectly."We'd probably have to have -- as long as my career has been -- like, a little Dolly and a middle Dolly and then the older one," she said in a 2021 interview with Southern Living magazine."I love Kristin Chenoweth. She's just absolutely fantastic," Dolly shared, revealing she had the 53-year-old actor in mind for her Broadway project. "I thought she'd be an ideal person to do that," she added.Although a potential biopic on the music legend might be a long time away, Parton herself will be seen in a film soon. The star will feature in the upcoming film adaptation of 'Run, Rose, Run,' the novel she co-wrote with popular author James Patterson.Parton and Patterson are also producing the movie along with Reese Witherspoon and Lauren Neustadter for Hello Sunshine.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
