Michelle Williams as Marilyn Monroe – PHOTOS

Several actresses were bucking for the role of Marilyn Monroe in the upcoming film, ‘My Week with Marilyn.’ Michelle Williams was given the honor and here is a peek at the ‘Dawson’s Creek’ kid turned Golden Globe nominee.

Kate Hudson and Amy Adams were being considered for the role along with Michelle. Originally, Scarlett Johansson was said to have been in heavy talks for the role, but ended up turning it down. Contrasting reports state that while Johansson was being considered for the role, Michelle was the only actress that producers actually met with.

Scarlett Johansson Top Pick for Marilyn Monroe Movie

Lindsay Lohan is going to knocking back a few bottles of vitamin water (and by vitamin water I mean vodka chased with Tilex) once she hears this. Scarlett Johansson is currently the front runner to play Marilyn Monroe in the film “My Week With Marilyn.”

According to Popcrunch, the film will center around the diary of Colin Clark who took Monroe on a tour of London in 1957. He detailed their journey around the British capital focusing on stops at Queen Elizabeth’s private apartment at Windsor Castle.

Despite stripping off and recreating Marilyn’s infamous impromptu photoshoot, Lohan isn’t even in the running for the role. Kate Hudson, Amy Adams and Michelle Williams have also been named dropped as possible for the film.

Being that Scarlett is the only one that doesn’t have the boobs of a little boy, I am guessing she is a shoe in. However, I do love Amy Adams and Michelle Williams I think they’d look odd sporting a dress stuffed with tissues to emulate Monroe’s notorious curves, but can actually act. So, it’s a toss up between actual talent or actual boobs.
