Former EastEnders star Michelle Ryan is tipped to play Jade Goody in a film about her life.
Earlier this week it was revealed that trustees of the 27-year-old reality TV star’s estate want to turn her second autobiography, Catch A Falling Star, into a movie.
Now Michelle, 24, who went on to star in Bionic Woman in the US, is being considered to play Jade, who died from cancer on Mothers' Day.

Another actress being considered for the role is Ugly Betty and Extras star Ashley Jensen, 39.
A source said today: 'Nothing has been decided yet. But already a number of names have been put forward, including Ashley Jensen and Michelle Ryan.
'Both actresses are thought to be able to capture the humour and fun-loving nature of Jade.'
The source added that those involved with the project are also keen to have an all-British cast, with Danny Dyer, 31, among the actors lined up to play Jade’s husband Jack Tweed.

Also being considered for Tweed’s role are two more former EastEnders stars, Robert Kazinsky, 25, and Sean Maguire, 32.
Last night, a spokesman for Jade said: 'Yes, various names have contacted me about this. But all decisions will be made in due time.'
Trustee Danny Hayward said: 'Her story lends itself to a biographical film. She has captured the mood of the nation. We want to tap into raising awareness of cervical cancer.'
It was also revealed today that Tweed, 21, plans to auction off Jade’s clothes to raise money for cancer charities Cancer Research and Marie Curie nurses, who looked after Jade at her Essex home during her last days

Jade’s mother Jackiey Budden, 51, will have a makeover for the funeral, to be held on 4 April at St John The Baptist church in Buckhurst Hill.

Just before she died, Jade requested she have a gap in her teeth fixed.
Jade's mother-in-law Mary Tweed visited Jade's Essex home to inspect the wall of flowers left by well wishers outside.

Mrs Tweed, whose son Jack married Jade just a month before her death, appeared tearful, hiding her head behind giant sunglasses as she looked at the mounting tributes.
