Ariana Grande has responded to speculation about the possibility of playing Hollywood icon Audrey Hepburn in a biopic. 

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, the pop star and actress expressed her surprise and admiration for the idea but remained cautious about the responsibility such a role would entail.

“Oh my goodness, oh my goodness - I have no idea,” Grande said. “That would have to be done so well and so perfectly and have to be - I don’t know.” Her comments highlight the care and precision required to portray one of the most beloved figures in cinematic history.

Known for her vocal talent and acting versatility, Grande’s name has been floated in fan conversations about a potential Hepburn biopic. The Thank U, Next singer, who has been making waves with her role as Glinda in the upcoming Wicked film adaptation, is no stranger to the spotlight. However, she made it clear that playing Hepburn would demand extraordinary attention to detail and respect for the late actress’s legacy.

Audrey Hepburn, known for iconic films like Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Roman Holiday, remains a cultural and fashion icon decades after her passing. A biopic about her life would undoubtedly be a major undertaking, and Grande’s hesitation suggests her respect for the role’s significance.

While no official plans for a Hepburn biopic have been announced, fans are already imagining how Grande’s elegance and talent might bring the screen legend to life.
