Britney Spears is reportedly up for a role on Broadway playing Sandy in the stage version of Grease.

She proved her acting credentials with two highly successful stints in the sitcom How I Met Your Mother and was recently linked with a move to the London stage.  Spears was reportedly in talks to star in a West End production of Tennessee Williams’ play A Streetcar Named Desire - playing the lead role of Blanche DuBois.

And now she is once again rumored to be considering a turn on stage, this time in the hit musical Grease.  A source tells British newspaper Metro

 ”The producers were bouncing around the idea of casting Britney in the role of Sandy. They’re recasting the roles in July and they thought that Britney looked like a Sandy. She would be terrific.”
