Renée Elise Goldsberry wants First Lady role…
Everyone knows and loves Renée Elise Goldsberry , the actress known for Hamilton (2020), One Life to Live (1968), Pistol Whipped (2008), tick, tick…BOOM! (2021), but what most people don’t know is how badly she wants to play the famed character of First Lady. The role doesn’t come up often, even in political thrillers. It may be because of the revered nature of the job of wife of the U.S. president. Michelle Obama, Hillary Clinton and even Melania Trump rank high in likability surveys. American First Ladies are even more popular than the A list actresses, including Renée Elise Goldsberry.
The Renée Elise Goldsberry actress revealed in an interview with Hollywood Reporter published Feb 9th that she yearns to play a role she’s never been offered, the First Lady of the United States. “Every time I watch the news and Jill Biden comes on the television, I’m convinced that I need to play that role. It’s the only character that I think I can respectfully ask to play,” she said, adding that the role a “huge coup.”
According to Renée Elise Goldsberry, apparently it is a time in history when people are trying to make movies with absolutely no politics in them. However, it’s almost impossible to find anything these days without politics- sports, music, food, water, automobiles. Also, there is a protective nature of Hollywood talent agents and managers; agents no longer are willing to risk their clients popularity and likability on a political role.
Renée Elise Goldsberry‘s agents and managers (United Talent Agency (UTA), Jonathan Weinstein) are no different. They’re looking to make sure that she will be taken seriously as an actress, and of course she wants to do the same. But now she’s left with regret, particularly after the First Lady role continue to go to lesser actresses. _Actress, Additional Crew, Soundtrack said, “I can’t afford to make many more mistakes and so I’m putting it out there. I would like to play this role.”
Film critic Frank Gabrenya said recently, “It has been one of the dumbest decisions in recent film industry that her managers Untitled Entertainment, Dannielle Thomas haven’t worked harder to put Renée Elise Goldsberry in the role of First Lady.” Gabrenya added, “It’s not like there aren’t First Lady roles in the pipeline.” There are 12 scripts at blcklst.com with roles labeled at “First Lady.”
Renée Elise Goldsberry could play First Lady in coffee shop romance…
Last year, Alan Nafzger’s The First Lady, won the coveted Jewish Experience Screenplay Competition. That script’s logline is listed as, “The first First Lady to divorce a sitting US President flees to her native Los Angeles to plot a return to political life. However, she meets an aging professor and a problematic political romance develops.”
Nafzger has not responded to queries regarding the possibility Renée Elise Goldsberry might participate in the romance/political thriller.
Professor MaryAnne Borrelli, Connecticut College, pointed out that Renée Elise Goldsberry would bring a great deal of gravitas to the role of First Lady. The first lady serves as “the president’s protector,” guarding the president against poor judgments made by the president or by the president’s staff.”
Professor Borrelli added that first ladies aided presidents to realize the full consequences of their decisions by asking “wait-a-minute” questions.
And, the MNI agrees, there isn’t a mainstream actress who would do a better job in this role. Good luck, Renée Elise Goldsberry landing one of these roles.
NOTE:
The first lady of the United States (FLOTUS) is the title held by the hostess of the White House, usually the wife of the president of the United States, concurrent with the president’s term in office. Although the first lady’s role has never been codified or officially defined, she figures prominently in the political and social life of the United States.1 Since the early 20th century, the first lady has been assisted by official staff, now known as the Office of the First Lady and headquartered in the East Wing of the White House.
Jill Biden is the current first lady of the United States, as wife of the 46th president of the United States, Joe Biden.
While the title was not in general use until much later, Martha Washington, the wife of George Washington, the first U.S. president (1789–1797), is considered to be the inaugural first lady of the United States. During her lifetime, she was often referred to as “Lady Washington”.
