Jennifer Lopez and Rosie Perez have reportedly let their claws out in the battle for who gets the rights to do a movie about Latina U.S. Supreme Court Justice, Sonia Sotomayor.
Although las dos actrices boricuas have been friends in the past, both are very eager to make a film about the inspiring Latina judge. La amistad has been put on the backburner in the race to be the first star to secure the rights to the biopic.
According to a source quoted in the National Enquirer:
Rosie resents Jennifer going after the project because she says she would have wanted to make the movie whether Sotomayor was confirmed or not. (Lopez) hosted a dinner party for Justice Sotomayor right after her confirmation. It was to butter her up because Lopez thinks a film about her life story would be huge. Considering this is Hollywood, before its over, there may be two film versions of Sonia Sotomayor’s life.
Hmm, we're a little disappointed about all this fighting! We know Rosie Perez has been dying to take on the role, pero somehow we just don't think that a movie star batalla is the right way to celebrate the success of una poderosa e inspiradora Latina.
Bueno -- who do you think would make a better Sonia? JLo or Rosie? Leave a comment with your vote! [PopCrunch]
