The Irish singer had considered Hollywood A-lister Demi Moore and Irish actresses Saoirse Ronan and Niamh Algar to play her at different stages of her life.

The screenplay would have been based on her June 2021 autobiography Rememberings.
A source said: “Sinéad was keen to explore making her memoir into her film and she had a raft of ideas about how it would look on screen.
“She had a huge amount of respect for Demi and thought Niamh was a real rising star after she saw her in her TV series The Virtues.

“Sinéad, too, thought Saoirse was fierce and loved her from her film Brooklyn in 2015 when she played an Irish migrant.”


“Her early ideas for the film saw her leaning towards a triptych-style film, featuring three different actresses which would fit with a satirical reference to the Catholic Church’s father, son and Holy Ghost.
“It was clear Sinead had given real thought to the biopic and seemed keen to get involved in the script.”
The singer, a Muslim convert, was said to have thought that using three actresses would make for a satirical reference to the Roman Catholic Church’s father, son and Holy Ghost.
Sinéad, who died on July 26 aged 56, was buried in Bray, Co Wicklow, last week.
U2 frontman Bono and Bob Geldof were among her friends invited to the funeral.
Her management company she had been in talks over the film as well as planning an album and tour.
