Madonna and Julia Garner Stun as Twins in Venice Following Biopic Cancellation

Julia Garner is currently embodying Madonna, and she’s doing so right in Venice.

The pair of blondes mirrored each other’s style during a gondola ride through Venice’s iconic canals, lip-syncing Madonna’s 1984 classic, “Like a Virgin.”

Both were dressed in jeans, a black-and-white striped gondolier shirt, and a sleek black blazer, each accessorizing with large straw hats—Garner’s adorned with a red ribbon and Madonna’s with blue.

They used the hats as part of their performance, leaning on each other as they swayed and sang along to the famous song.

The caption of their shared Instagram post read, “Like A Virgin……again and again. ”

This video pays homage to the original “Like a Virgin” music video, which was also shot in Venice over four decades ago.

In her book, “I Want My MTV: The Uncensored Story of the Music Video Revolution,” director Mary Lambert revealed that having Madonna sing in a gondola was the most daring concept she could envision.

Over the past week, Madonna and Garner have been seen filming the second season of “The Studio,” marking Madonna’s return to scripted television for the first time in 23 years since her guest appearance on “Will & Grace” in 2003.

Garner was initially chosen to portray Madonna in a biopic, which Madonna herself co-wrote. Garner secured the role after enduring a rigorous audition process that tested her singing and dancing skills against other actresses.

Although the biopic was ultimately canceled in 2023, Netflix has decided to adapt the project into a series, with Garner still on board.
