Gypsy Rose Blanchard wants Millie Bobby Brown to play her in a movie or TV show about her life

The life of Gypsy Rose Blanchard has already been made into a TV series before - but she has now said who she would want to play her.

'Who would play you in a movie about your life?' is not a question that most of us will likely ever see answered.

But that's not the case for Gypsy Rose Blanchard, who has now revealed who she would prefer to play her in a film or TV show about her life.

And that's not including that the series already out about her life, The Act, which is on Hulu.

The Act, which came out in 2019, is based on Gypsy's story and her 'toxic relationship' with her mother Clauddine 'Dee Dee' Blanchard before she and her boyfriend, Nicholas 'Nick' Godejohn, make a plan to kill her, according to the show's official synopsis.

And it was Kissing Booth star Joey King that took on the role of Gypsy in the series - with The Guardian describing her and Patricia Arquette's, who played Dee Dee, performances as 'searing and committed'.

But who does Blanchard herself think would be best? Well, it's not Joey King. Awkward.

In an interview with Access Hollywood, the 32-year-old said: "It's funny, because I always wanted Millie Bobby Brown to play me. I think she'd be good at playing me."

Nonetheless, she was also quick to praise King's performance of her in The Act.

Though she said that while she hasn't watched the show as it would bring back painful trauma, she has heard a voice recording.

Gypsy said: "I'm sure that Joey King did an amazing job playing me. I actually heard an audio clip of her doing my voice, and I think she got it spot-on."

UNILAD has contacted Bobby Brown's reps for comment.

The Act is not her only time her story has been told on television - with Lifetime also making a documentary about her life.

This year, another series called The Prison Confessions of Gypsy Rose Blanchard was released on January 5.

Gypsy was sentenced to ten years in prison after pleading guilty to second-degree murder in connection with the death of her mother Dee Dee in 2015.

For years, Dee Dee had convinced everyone that her daughter was terminally ill.

She would shave her daughter's head, make her use a wheelchair, and even give her medication that she didn't need.

Blanchard claimed that she was a 'victim of Munchausen by proxy'.

She met Godejohn online, and the pair planned to kill Blanchard's mother - with Godejohn carrying out the attack.

Blanchard was released from prison at the end of 2023 after serving 85 percent of her sentence.

Godejohn is currently serving a life sentence without parole.
