Madonna to Star with Fergie, Clooney and Gaga in " How to Marry a Millionaire" Remake?

Madonna is busy directing a movie called W.E. about the Duke and Duchess of Windsor in London but that doesn't mean she is planning on taking a vacation anytime soon. Madonna only sleeps three hours a day so that leaves plenty of time to plan a new movie with some co stars who adore her like Lady Gaga

There is talk Madonna wants to remake Marilyn Monroe's most famous movie with a star studded cast of Hollywood and music pop stars.

" How to Marry A Millionaire" was a light frothy musical comedy in 1953 which calls for a charismatic cast.
With the popularity of " Mad Men" this might really strike a chord with nostalgic viewers.

Lady Gaga would play the Marilyn role with Madonna doing Lauren Bacall and Fergie playing Betty Grable.

George Clooney would play the mature older man who falls for Marilyn or Gaga in this case.

Of course it would take a whole rewrite to focus more on Clooney and some great new songs but I think it is a marvelous idea.

Here's the synopsis:

How to Marry a Millionaire: Three New York models, Shatze, Pola and Loco set-up in an exclusive apartment with a plan: tired of cheap men and a lack of money they intend to use all their talents to trap and marry three millionaires. The trouble is that's it's not so easy to tell the rich men from the hucksters and even when they can, is the money really worth it?
