London: Scarlett Johansson and Reese Witherspoon are among the actresses in line to portray Hillary Clinton in a new biopic.
'Rodham' will follow the former Secretary of State through her younger years in 1974, when she was a lawyer in Washington.
Jessica Chastain and Amanda Seyfried are also being considered for the lead role, according to Digital Spy.
The project is scheduled to be released in time for the 2016
presidential election, where Clinton may be a candidate for the
Democrats.
'Rodham' director James Ponsoldt said, "They're all wonderful
actresses. We're very fortunate that a lot of really great actors are
interested in playing these roles. We're in an enviable position.
"Regardless of people's political affiliation or how they feel
about Hillary Clinton, you don't find people who question the quality of
her intelligence or her drive. I want a wonderful actress who could
embody that.
