Anna Nicole Driven by Ford in New Movie

Anna Nicole Smith may be in heaven, but she's also connecting with the stars, as in "Dancing With." Former contestant Willa Ford will play the sometimes lucid, sometimes not, former Playboy Playmate.
Anna Nicole Smith and Willa Ford
Ford has signed on to star in "Anna Nicole," and shooting begins next week. It's about Smith's rise from exotic dancer to reality-show-diet-spokesmodel stardom, from her late teens up until her death in February at age 39. Meanwhile, a thinly-veiled fictionalization of Smith on "Law & Order: Criminal Intent" will feature actress Kristy Swanson as an Anna-alike.

46. Melissa Peterman? No way, she is too old looking..There is not way she could pull off a young Anna and I don't think she looks like her..

47. Really, "Who gives a crap?" With all the important things going on in the world today I simply cannot understand why this is being given so much publicity. It is absolutely disgusting!

48. Who cares, Anna Nicole Smith was a nobody until she died. There are lots of big boobed dippy blondes who marry rich men........she was a no talent tramp who slept with anyone, anytime, anyplace. I feel sorry for her daughter when she grows up and hears about her mother.

53. ANS does not look like Alicia S. to me at all. At least Willa Ford does have similar facial features as ANS such as her nose, lips, checks, same eye color, teeth, eye brows and last but not least that blonde hair!! WOW, if you take a closer look you may see they have many similarities.

54. IF THE MOVIE SHOWS HKS WALKING ITO THE GAS CHAMBER FOR THE MURDERS OF ANS AND DANIEL THEN ITS WORTH FILMING...

IF NOT THEN FORGET IT.. WE ALL KNOW THE REAL TALE... ITS NOT EVEN OVER YET...

THE DRAMA IS STILL UNFOLDING...

AND YOU ARE GOING TO RELEASE A MOVIE WITHOUT AN ENDING

LETS WAIT UNTIL HKS PAYS REGARDLESS OF HOW LONG THE FILMING INDUSTRY HAS TO WAIT...

THE MOVIE WILL NOT HAVE AN ENDING YET...

AND TO WATCH A MOVIE THAT TAKES YOU FROM ANS BIRTH TO THE DAY SHE DIED WHAT A WAIST OF TIME AND MONEY...

WE HAVE ALL SEEN IT AND IT IS BORING...

WE NEED HKS TO PAY IF ANYONE WANTS THIS MOVIE TO BE A SUCCESS

55. DONT FILM IT IT WILL TANK... LIKE ANYTHING ELSE ANS DID...
THE ONLY GOOD THING SHE EVER DID WAS TO GIVE BIRTH TO DANIEL AND DANNIELYNN ... OTHER THAN THAT SHE WAS ALWAYS USELESS

56. I think Shana Moakler would be a better choice to play Anna Nicole.

57. ANS CANT BE PORTRAID... THERE IS ONLY ONE PERSON THAT CAN PLAY ANS PART AND THAT WAS ANS... NO ONE IS THAT SUPID... THE DARK CLOUD SHE CLAIMED TO HAVE OVER HER HEAD IS THE SAME CLOUD THE ACTRESS WHO STEPS IN HER SHOES WILL HAVE...

58. They should've cast Jordan (Katie Price): she's got the "assets" and, considering she's pregnant, her post-baby size could be used to more-closely replicate ANS' body size. That's 2-for-2 (or is it 3?)!

59. I am sick of Anna Nicole Smith and do not want to see a Movie of her trashy life. Her only claim to fame was marrying a Billionaire ole enough to be her great, great grandfather and she only married him for hisd money. She was zonked out on drugs her whole career and she is no role model for our kids - She was a sleazy, immoral pig.
