Madonna is working on a film adaptation of Andrew Sean Greer’s novel The Impossible Lives of Greta Wells, which grapples with time travel and evolving attitudes towards sexuality. The movie is set to be called Loved. 

The singer-turned-director told Harper’s Bazaar she is interested in its themes of “women’s rights, gay rights, civil rights,” and “fighting for the underdog.”

This will mark Madonna’s fourth time as a director following the 2013 short film “Secret Project Revolution.”

Madonna also revealed she is working on new music. Her last album, “Rebel Heart,” (her 13th record overall) was released in 2015.
