It seems like Britney Spears [2] is back on top of the world these days (right where she belongs), and we don't mind one bit. As if news about her upcoming VMAs performance [3] and the release of her new album [4], Glory, weren't enough, there's one more new project to look forward to — a TV movie! On Wednesday, Lifetime announced that they are making a biopic about the singer's life, and there are already a handful of details, including the actress who will be playing her. Check out all the important information below, then look back at her amazing transformation over the years [5].

What It's About

The Premiere Date

Production is set to begin in September with a premiere date planned for sometime in 2017.

Britney's Involvement
