Some time ago, we mentioned that Anne Hathaway will tackling one of her biggest roles to date: Judy Garland.

The actress is slated to portray the legend on not only the big screen, but the Great White Way too - in the production called Get Happy: The Life of Judy Garland. While she attended the Tony Awards this past Sunday, she talked about the overwhelming undertaking of playing Garland.

"I think I’m either naive or insane to play her — maybe a little bit of both," she says.

She also revealed that while she hasn't had the chance to speak to her yet, she feels a conversation with Liza Minnelli, daughter of Judy Garland, is an important step in understanding how to tackle the role.

“I haven’t had a chance to talk to her about it yet, but I understand that as long as I treat Judy with respect — which of course I will — Liza is very happy about it.”

We're pretty excited about this! We think she is a phenomenal choice, if she doesn't choke!

Would U go see Anne as Judy?

Brokeback Mountain stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway are reuniting to star in the new Ed Zwick-directed flick Love and Other Drugs.

With production beginning in later September, the 20th Century Fox and New Regency backed film centers around:

Jamie Reidy (Jake Gyllenhaal) is a charmer and a talker who is never still. He does not live up to his family's expectations of him or to the successes of his siblings. Jamie jumps from job to job, and eventually finds his niche in the pharmaceutical sales world. It isn't an easy start for him, until he is able to use his polished skills with women to sell the new drug, Viagra, released by his company Pfizer.

Meanwhile Maggie Murdock (Anne Hathaway) is a pretty young woman with art-girl hair, a pugnacious manner and warm eyes. She consults Dr. Knight regarding her Parkinson's disease, while Jamie pretends to be his intern. Against her better judgment, she falls in love with Jamie.

"Art-girl hair" and a "pugnacious manner," huh?

Well, at least it isn't some half-hearted remake!

Leave it to the lovely Anne Hathaway to show the troubled ladies of Hollywood how to do things properly.

Monday night, Annie was spotted at NBC Studios in New York City for a guest appearance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. And, in typical paparazzi form, they snapped away at her - from below! - whilst exiting the car wearing a short dress.

But leave it to Hathaway to show them how to exit a car with ease and style.

Loves it!

Fashion legend Valentino and Oscar-nominated actress Anne Hathaway attended the Rodeo Drive Walk of Style Induction Ceremony in Beverly Hills on Thursday.

It looks like Lindsay hired them as spokespeople for her new line of self-tanners. Anne is wearing "Lindsay Au Natural" and Valentino is wearing "Lindsay Drunk Self-Tanning," otherwise known as "Oompa Loompa."

Somehow they still look pretty fierce!

Anne Hathaway is set to portray the legendary Judy Garland on both the silver screen and stage.

Adapted from Gerald Clarke's 2000 biography, Get Happy: The Life of Judy Garland, the Weinstein Co. will be expertly producing both projects.

If Princess Anne can manage to swing it (and we think she can!), she stands to garner both an Oscar and a Tony nod. Though twice nominated, Garland never won an Oscar, apart from an honorary award after her death. Nor did she ever appear on Broadway.

And, as we've already established, Annie can sing!
