Susan Boyle To Be Played By Robin Williams?
A Susan Boyle biopic has evidently been in the works for a while now, but you probably didn't anticipate who they'd consider for the lead role.
Actor Robin Williams says that he's been asked to play the Britain's Got Talent surprise sensation in a film adaptation, and joked that his stint as Mrs. Doubtfire gave him some of the experience he'd require for the role.
Could this actually work? Or would Susan be better played by a veteran character actor like Meryl Streep or Kathy Bates? You know, someone who's a girl?

I think I'd be pretty insulted if I were her by the way people focus so much on how she looks. Why do people have to be so shallow?
That's a pretty foul thing to do on the director/producer's part. And Williams' if he takes it.
