Sonia Sotomayor the Movie?


Rosie Perez is eager to tackle the role of a lifetime by playing Sonia Sotomayor if a biopic of the Supreme Court nominee were ever to be made. Sotomayor's confimation hearings start today in Congress.

"Oh my God, I'd be so honored," the actress told the NY Daily News at screening of the documentary Shouting Fire: Stories from the Edge of Free Speech at HBO Studios. Perez would relish the challenge the role would present, playing a real person, who is still alive and able to judge the performance. There is no denying the parallels in the life stories of the Bronx-born-and-bred boricua judge, who pulled herself up from the housing projects to find wild success, and the Brooklyn-bred Perez.

Rosie, watch your back, I think there's been a J-Lo sighting.....where's Mookie?

  1. I can't take her seriously doing this role. I would be waiting on her high pitched voice to yell out some silly nick name to spike lee.

  2. Her voice is way to nasally to do this. She would have to take serious voice and acting lessons. JLo would have to become a whole other person to do a serious acting role she didn't sleep her way into.
