The Daily Mail’s Showbiz Reporter Baz Bamigboye has learned that the Scarlett has been tapped to portray Marilyn in the upcoming film My Week With Marilyn, will be based on the diary of Colin Clark, an employee of Laurence Olivier, who escorted the screen star on a tour of London when she arrived in the British capital to film Olivier’s The Prince And The Showgirl in 1957.

In the diary, Clark speaks about showing Marilyn around Queen Elizabeth’s private apartments at Windsor Castle, as well as other trips.

Kate Hudson, Amy Adams, and Michelle Williams have also been mentioned as possible “Marilyns” for the film.
