According to what the British media reports today, Madonna's next acting move could be to star as Wallis Simpson in a movie about the divorcee whose relationship with King Edward VIII led him to abdicate the throne.According to The Daily Telegraph Madonna is said to have become fascinated with the story of the American socialite who caused a constitutional crisis and intends to portray her in a film which will tell the story of how Edward gave up his position as the King of England after less than a year, so he could marry the twice-divorced Mrs Simpson in 1936.
Madonna is said to see similarities between herself and Mrs Simpson, who later became the Duchess of Windsor, as they are both Americans who moved to Britain and caused a "stir" with their relationships.
According to sources, Madonna, who divorced British film director Guy Ritchie last year, covered a wall of her London house with articles about Wallis Simpson and even wrote to the Queen to ask permission to make the film.
A source told UK newspaper The Sun: "Madonna sees Wallis Simpson as her next big film project. She is as passionate about it as she was about playing Eva Peron in Evita.
"Madonna said she is fascinated with this American commoner who refused to conform or offer explanations for her tangled love life. It was all systems go when until the divorce, when everything was put on the back-burner.
"When things in her life settle down this year, she's keen to get things going again."

Fuck off "Anonymous" you couldn't bother to write a name to lick your Goddess ass? Lame...
Ruthless people are not worthy to be Madonna fans. Mind your own business. Get a life!
The only thing worthy of Madonna is money, you know it. Now off my back, I'm entitled to hate her acting, don't go ape shit on me because in the back on your mind you ALL know she sucks at it.
Love her music & quality as a performer, but posing on film is not acting.
