Or she could just not do it. It's not like the world desperately needs a Madonna biopic. I don't blame her for playing hardball with the Hollywood studios.

    Plus after the success of "Michael" I expect Madonna can play hardball. Madonna certainly has had a career on par with all the recent successful musician biopics. The success of "Michael" shows these films are still big money makers.

    If they she believes it is a money maker then she would invest the money herself.

    She knows it is a risk and wants someone to risk their money for her profit. Capitalism 101. It's how Musk got to be the richest man on Earth.
