Old news.

But she is 40 years old. ?

LBR Janis died at 27 but she looked older than Amy looks now.

True

what the hell? i mean she literally looks nothing like Janis also the way Janice sang was wild. i cant see her doing this

Is she gonna sing because that'll be a hard job.

I've heard they want to change Janis' death so I'm curious how it will turn out.

Don't doubt Queen Amy she was wild in American Hustle

It was supposed to be Brittany Murphy but they couldn't get the rights

another role that should've gone to a 60+ actress given to a 40-year-old
ageism is just the worst

I love Amy, but she looks nothing like Janis.

but this isn't sexy wild. Janis was really grungy. i just cant see her making this believable. not too mention she was chunky and Amy is like 90 pounds

She will never be better than Kween Jenna Maroney so why try?

Should have been Pink or X, but oh well. Amy is generally good, so ok. Anna Kendricks would have been a good option also.

Amy is the best actress out right now so she's the right choice

People probably thought the same about Charlize and Monster tbf, and look what happened

I wish p!nk would've gotten it. I like amy but I don't see it.

true its just really tricky when they have actresses play singers, especially when they look the complete opposite of the actual person.
