Madonna to film scenes today, although she wants a script rewrite

07-Jul-2002 • Die Another Day

The Sunday Mirror are reporting that Madonna is to film her scenes for Die Antoher Day today, but has demanded a script rewrite - by none other than her husband Guy "Snatch" Ritchie:

She`s renowned for her diva demands and getting her own way, so why does it not surprise me Madonna is rumoured to be making life difficult for James Bond film bosses?

Ever the perfectionist, the 43-year-old star has demanded the script is changed for her cameo role in Die Another Day.

But it`s proving a major headache for the production crew as she`s insisted her husband Guy Ritchie rewrites it.

A source said: "It`s a major hassle, especially as we`re on a tight schedule and can`t afford to overrun on anything.

"Some of the production staff are doing their nut. But at the end of the day, it is Madonna and she`s a major coup for us.

Whatever she says goes." Madonna, who also sings the film`s theme tune, is due to start shooting scenes opposite 007 Pierce Brosnan and co-star Halle Berry today at London`s Pinewood Studios.

The source added: "It should be interesting as all Madonna`s scenes must be shot on Sunday, including her speaking parts, because of her theatre commitments." It is believed Madonna only agreed to sing the title theme tune if she was given a part in the film which is due out on November 20th 2002 (UK).
