Britney Spears’ Ex Sam Asghari Wants Biopic To ‘Do Justice By Her Legacy’

While promoting his recent film “Jackpot,” the 30-year-old actor talked about his ex-wife and the upcoming movie about her life and profession.

On Tuesday, August 13, Sam Asghari walked the red carpet to advertise his recent film “Jackpot,” which can change into available to stream on Prime Video on August 15. During an interview with Entertainment Tonight, the previous personal trainer was asked for his thoughts on the Britney Spears biopic, which shall be based on her best-selling memoir “The Woman In Me.”

“I just hope that they’ve her approval and every part, and so they do justice by her legacy, since it’s a extremely strong one,” he said. When asked if he had any idea what actor would star him within the biopic, Sam played coy, admitting, “I’m really just specializing in my craft.”

On August 1, the “Toxic” singer teased the news along with her fans, writing, “Excited to share with my fans that I have been working on a secret project with #MarcPlatt. He’s at all times made my favorite movies … stay tuned.”

Shortly after, Universal Pictures announced that that they had purchased the rights to Britney Spears’ 2023 memoir “The Woman In Me” after a “highly competitive auction.” In line with the press release, “Wicked” director Jon M. Chu will helm the film, although no actress has been forged within the starring role of Britney Spears just yet.

Shortly after their breakup, the actor told People magazine that he doesn’t regret the time spent along with his ex, who he began dating after they met on the set of her “Slumber Party” music video in 2016. “It was a blessing to give you the option to share life with someone for a very long time. And folks grow apart and other people move on,” he said shortly after the couple had finalized their divorce.

“I’ve at all times hated people leaving a certain relationship — and in some unspecified time in the future, they told one another they love one another and so they sat at the identical table and ate food [together] — so I never understood when people part ways [and] they talk badly about one another,” he continued. “That is something I’m never going to do because I had nothing but a tremendous experience and an incredible life, and that is at all times going to be a part of my life, a chapter of my life.”

Ahead of his thirtieth birthday, the “Special Ops: Lioness” actor told People magazine that he desires to deal with constructing his profession and maintaining a “healthy lifestyle” as he looks ahead to his future.

“I used to think people who were 30 years old were so old after I was in highschool. But every one I discuss with, the older they get, the more they get to enjoy life because with age comes wisdom and experiences,” he says. “And I believe experiences in life are beautiful, in order that’s something that I’m just super excited to only be fulfilled with.”

He also clarified that he isn’t currently dating and that the one woman in his life in the meanwhile is his dog, Porsha.

“I at all times have probably the most positive mindset about life. My experiences in life have shaped me into the person I’m today. I’ll proceed growing. I come from a spot where we have fun our past,” he said. “I look back fondly. My past was a blessing and exquisite.”

After tying the knot in June 2022, Sam Asghari filed for divorce in August 2023 citing “irreconcilable differences” in accordance with court documents obtained by The Blast. The month after he filed for divorce, the “Oops!… I Did It Again” singer was seen out and about along with her former housekeeper, Paul Richard Soliz, who was reportedly fired after her management team learned about his criminal history.

Earlier this month, TMZ published photos of Britney spending time at a Sky Zone in Thousand Oaks, California, along with her boyfriend and his children. The photos were taken a couple of month after the pop star declared that she was “single as f-ck.” She has since deleted the post, leading many to suspect that the 2 are back together.
