Debbie Harry has her eyes set on an Oscar-nominated actress to portray her in the upcoming Blondie biopic.
"If it were somebody like Florence Pugh, I would be in heaven," Harry, 80, told U.K. 's The Times, per multiple reports. "I just think she's a great actor and she could do anything."
Coincidentally enough, Pugh revealed that she wanted to depict Harry’s life and journey in the group while speaking at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival in 2020.

"Blondie, just because she's so cool,” the Thunderbolts star said at the time, per Entertainment Weekly.
Harry was the frontwoman of Blondie, a music group that trailblazed through the music industry between the 1970s and 1980s.
“I think that there was a time when it wasn’t done, and I think that was back in the ’70s. It’s quite a few years ago when the styles weren’t blended. If you did a reggae album, you did a reggae album, and if you did a rock album, you did a rock album,” she told L.A. Times of Blondie’s influence in September. “But then we started mixing in influences because we were so urban. These were the influences that were around us [in New York City], and it just seemed normal; I don’t know how else to explain it. These were the things that we liked.”

Harry continued her music journey after the members of Blondie went their separate ways in 1982 after releasing album No. 6, The Hunter. The band has spontaneously reunited for periods of time over the years, and is set to release their upcoming album in Spring 2016.
“There’s also some really great dance music [in the album],” Harry continued to the outlet of the unreleased project. “It’s very rock and roll, but yet, we’ve always managed to squeeze in elements of other sounds in music and other styles of music, other moods of music. And Blondie has always done that. We’ve always embodied the present. So it feels like Blondie.”
