Amy Adams to portray Janis Joplin in biopic

The Academy Award nominated Amy Adams is set to protest the rock legend, Janis Joplin in the upcoming biopic, Get It While You Can.

Adams was initially believed to play Joplin in 2010 but the film has been in development purgatory since then. However, it was reported that Adams was removed from the project in 2012 and was replaced with Tony Award winner, Nina Arianda.

The producers of the film are now in search for a director with the main cast set. They have focused on the director of Dallas Buyers Club, Jean-Marc Vallée. The filming is intended to begin in the second half of 2015.

These next few years will feature many impressive new biopics, such as Paul Dano as Brian Wilson.
