Jade Goody’s life to turn into a Hollywood movie
MUMBAI: Late British reality TV star Jade Goody‘s (27) life story may soon shape into a Hollywood movie. Based on her autobiography Catch a Falling Star, the movie, temporarily titled the same, will highlight Goody‘s poverty stricken childhood and later her battle with cancer.
Trustees of Goody‘s fund set up to aid her two sons reportedly proposed the idea of making a biographical film on her. Through the movie, they also plan to raise awareness of cervical cancer among the masses. Nick Love of The Football Factory fame has been approached for this project.
Goody died on Sunday after battling cervical cancer for around seven months. She is survived by her husband Jack Tweed and two sons Bobby (5) and Freddie (4).
