Meryl Streep And Gwyneth Paltrow To Play Mother And Daughter


Hollywood beauties MERYL STREEP and GWYNETH PALTROW are to play a mother and daughter in a new real-life drama.

The pair will star in DAUGHTER OF THE QUEEN OF SHEEBA, which has been written by American radio journalist JACKI LYDEN. The project is being directed by MATT WILLIAMS, whose previous work includes WHERE THE HEART IS, and according to the HOLLYWOOD REPORTER, tells the story of how Lyden's manic depressive mother believed she was the QUEEN OF SHEBA and MARIE ANTOINETTE.

The story will use Lyden's memoirs as a backdrop to focus on the daughter's adult life, her relationship with her mother and with men, and the professional pursuits that took her around the globe. (RP/WNWCAN/KW)
