Will the world ever get the Madonna movie fans have been waiting patiently for?
Julia Garner was slated to portray the icon, though we haven’t heard much since. In the meantime, while folks remains hopeful, the pair of award-winning performers were just spotted riding a Gondola in Venice, Italy together, Just Jared reports.
Added to that, there were cameras were rolling as Garner, 32, and the “Material Girl” singer, 67, sat side-by-side. Check out the image of them on a Venetian canal below.

Of course, this setup rules out the possibility that it was all captured for the long-anticipated Madonna biopic. However, it recently revealed that the Grammy winner had joined season 2 of The Studio, which is currently in production.
Earlier in the weekend, the celebrity gossip resource known as deuxmoi posted to Instagram a series of photos of Madonna and Garner shooting in other costumes for The Studio. In the comments section of the carousel post, fans speculated that the hit Apple TV show may be going expectedly “meta” by addressing the “scrapped” Madonna movie within its own storyline.

The last time Madonna showed up in a role on a TV show was back in 2003, when she popped up as a guest star on the sitcomWill & Grace. In the episode, she plays Liz, office manager and Karen Walker’s (Megan Mullally) post-divorce roommate.
No word on the role Madonna (or Garner) will play in next season of The Studio. Many big Hollywood names, including Ron Howard, Olivia Wilde, Martin Scorsese, Charlize Theron and Greta Lee, have starred on the show as absurd versions of their real celebrity selves.
Earlier this month, Madonna’s daughter Lourdes Leon, who performs as Lolahol, was spotted hitting up all the hottest fashion shows at Paris Fashion Week. Like her mother, Leon, 29, isn’t afraid to make a statement with a risky outfit or two. At the Ann Demeulemeester fashion show at Réfectoire des Cordeliers in Paris, she even went with an outfit that had a sheer back.
