Ruby Red Slippers for Anne Hathaway

For all of those old time fans of Judy Garland, Anne Hathaway or simply both, you will be in a treat.  Anne Hathaway is set to star on Broadway and on the silverscreen as the famous actress and singer based on the biography of Gerald Clarke titledGet Happy: The Life of Judy Garland.

“We are thrilled to have the brilliantly talented Anne Hathaway portray stage and screen legend Judy Garland. I have worked with Anne on projects in the past and have known her for many years. She will be a true class act in this challenging role,” said Harvey Weinstein, whose Weinstein Co. optioned the rights to Clarke’s book.

No word on whether Hathaway—a classically trained soprano—will lip-sync…or if she’ll provide her own take on Garland’s signature sound.

Also, there are some apologees being made to all of you die hard Wizard of Oz junkies.  There’s no word going around about there being any Led Zeppelin soundtracks.
