This year seems to be no exception as Streep pursues the roll of Margaret Thatcher. Portraying a real-life individual is almost a sure way to be nominated.
The new biopic Thatcher is being developed by Pathe and BBC Films. Margarat Thatcher served as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1979 to 1990. She was also the leader of the Conservative Party from 1975 to 1990, the only woman to hold both positions.
The film would focus on the two month Falklands War, after which Thatcher's approval rating doubled.
Jim Broadbent is rumored to be in talks as Thatcher's husband, Denis.
Meryl Streep is a wonderful actor, portraying a wide variety of roles. Her appearance as Julia Child shows her dedication when portraying characters based on real people.
