Robin Williams To Play Susan Boyle In Biopic

mrs-doubtfiresusan-boyle Apparently Robin Williams has been asked to play Susan Boyle in her biopic. [Via the Guardian]

"Williams has been asked to play singing sensationSusan Boyle in a movie about her life. Film executives are planning a film about her rise to stardom after appearing onBritain's Got Talent.

He says, "I've been asked if I want to play Susan in the movie. I think she's incredible. That clip of her singing on Britain's Got Talent was extraordinary. So inspiring. It was quite a shock when she began to sing. I saw some other clip of her singing Cry Me A River a few years ago. It was incredible. She's got a really great voice."

It helps that Robin is already a big Susan Boyle fan, and has reportedly been practicing his impressions of her and singing "I Dreamed a Dream" to prepare for the role."

It's not a huge stretch for Williams to play a woman. We have all witnessed the incredible job he did playing an old woman in Mrs. Doubtfire. I think he would be perfect for the job.

    Robin is good at playing the part of a woman and he has an amazing voice talent, but do you think he'll be able to sing like Susan Boyle?
