The 'Only Murders in the Building' star teased the news via Instagram.
Selena Gomez is set to portray a legendary musician!
According to multiple reports, the 31-year-old Only Murders in the Building actress will play Linda Ronstadt.
The film, which is in pre-production, will be produced by Ronstadt's manager, John Boylan, and James Keach (who produced the Johnny Cash biopic Walk the Line).
So far, a director and additional cast members have not been announced.
Gomez teased the news with her followers on Tuesday night -- prior to announcing her latest social media break.
On her Instagram Story, the "Good For You" singer shared a picture of her reading Ronstadt's 2013 biography, Simple Dreams.
Offering no caption, Gomez just posted the book's cover as it rested on her lap.
The biopic will be Gomez's return to film. The "Single Soon" singer last starred in Hotel Transylvania: 4 in 2022.
Gomez's upcoming film will mark the first biopic about Ronstadt. In 2019, the documentary Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice was released.
Ronstadt is an 11-time GRAMMY winner who made a name for herself in rock and roll, country and Latin music. During her decades-long career, the 77-year-old reached the top of the music charts with her song, "You're No Good," and found critical success with her albums, Heart Like a Wheel and Simple Dreams.
Ronstadt was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2014, and received the Kennedy Center Honor in 2019.
In 2011, the veteran musician retired from music after being diagnosed with progressive supranuclear palsy.
