Billie Eilish, a well-known pop icon, is now set to make her film acting debut after she is in talks to join Sarah Polley's film adaptation of Sylvia Plath's The Bell Jar.
For the movie, several major studios are attached. Joy Gorman Wettels (Little House on the Prairie, 13 Reasons Why), Plan B Entertainment, and StudioCanal will produce the project, according to Deadline.
