Sinead O’Connor was in talks for film on her life with huge Hollywood stars playing her

The late Irish singer Sinead O’Connor was said to have been in talks to make a biopic based on her memoir with plans for huge Hollywood stars to take on the leading role

Sinead O’Connor was said to have been in talks to make a film of her life with huge Hollywood stars in the leading role before her tragic death.

The Irish singer’s funeral took place last week following her tragic death at the age of 56 on Wednesday, July 26. Her management company have since shared how Sinead was planning to release an album, go on tour and explore “opportunities” with her book. In a statement on their website, 67 Management expressed their “love, thoughts and prayer” to the Nothing Compares 2 U singer’s family.

They added: “As tribute to those who were part of Sinead’s team over our tenure it has to be mentioned that Sinead was completing her new album, reviewing new tour dates for 2024 and considering opportunities in relation to a movie of her book. Wonderful plans were afoot at this time. Testament and tribute to those who have put their hearts first for Sinead, to whom we are forever grateful.

Kenneth Papenfus and Carl Papenfus ended their statement: “It has been an honour to have worked with Sinead professionally, as musicians, producers and her artist managers over the last nine years, but much, much more than that Sinead was family. May she rest in peace.” Sinead released her memoir Rememberings in 2021. It was described as a “unique and remarkable chronicle by a unique and remarkable artist”.
