Duane, the piece of news on a bio-picture in a couple of years was surprising! Do you know anything else? Is Dolly producing it?

[Dollymania]

She's not said, but given how involved she has been in "owning" her own projects lately, I wouldn't be surprised if she does produce it herself.

Dolly is currently working on a musical on her life and the plan is to get Kristin Chenoweth to play her!
