According to new reports, Adele may star as one of her influences, Dusty Springfield, in a new biopic.
"The film, which will be written by Boardwalk Empire scribe David Stenn, will focus on Springfield's time living in Memphis, Tennessee in the late 1960s during the making of her 1969 album Dusty in Memphis.
A studio executive tells the Daily Mail that soul star Adele is in talks to join the film, saying, 'There is a project - and it's true Adele is attached - but it's in an early stage of development.'
The script is yet to be accepted by a studio, and
Adele's musical commitments may be a factor in her ability to accept the role.
Adele's London-based spokesman offered "no comment on this" when approach by the newspaper."

The musical commitment thing is interesting because the film is not expected to begin production until late 2014 or 2015, according to this article:
