Please Let The Britney Spears Time Travel Holocaust Movie Be Real

thumbnail icon: Please Let The Britney Spears Time Travel Holocaust Movie Be Real

A website called the National Ledger, which appears to be a subsidiary of Jukt Micronics, is reporting on an amazing movie deal that they claim is in progress, but they're basically the only ones reporting on it, which kind of makes me think that it's not so much in progress as it is in the National Ledger's imagination. And yet, I hope with all of my hearts (I am like a squid) that this is real.

Britney Spears could be set to follow her successful Circus tour with a role in a new film, according to reports. The 27-year-old star is still touring the world with her Circus tour, and it is claimed a script for a film called The Yellow Star of Sophia and Eton has been handed to Britney to look at.

If she accepts the role, Britney will reportedly play the main role of Sophia LaMont, who creates a time machine and travels back to World War II where she meets a Jewish man called Eton at a concentration camp.

They then fall in love and travel back to the present day with the intention of getting married but they are both killed by Nazis.

HOLY SHIT. We're gonna need a bigger GREEN LIGHT. I want this to exist so bad that I'm going to pretend that "a script has been handed to Britney to look at" is a real and normal way for people to report entertainment news. Maybe if we give this writer a Pulitzer Prize for how good they are at it, it will help make this movie happen. That's how it works, right? My understanding of Hollywood rivals that of Robert Evans! (Thanks for the tip, Jake.)

Wait, they travel back to the present and THAT'S when they're killed by Nazis? I think that's what Ethan Hawke likes to call "irony".

I believe Britney's time travelling changes the past and causes the Nazis to win World War 2. What a great way to end this romantic comedy. Also, "Britney...Creates a time machine", really????

Where we're going we won't need roads, or underwear, or basic impulse control.

nothing fuels romance like being in a Concentration Camp.

Yeah, I can't wait to see "Eton" and how the director would play off emaciation and psychic devastation manifested physically. Because that's the kind of character a Britney Spears heroine falls in love with. Heil Duh.

i'm going to start making outlandish stuff up and just add the phrase, "according to reports" to the end.


that's how all the world's bullshit is manufactured, apparently.

If Britney's character had heard "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea" she would know traveling in time and fucking people in concentration camps can only end badly...

Awkward moment when Britney has to distract Hitler with a sensual striptease and they realize they have matching 'staches.
