Julie Andrew’s famous voice will soon be heard on Netflix.
The 83-year-old’s recognizable timber precedes her, having been provided to well-known characters such as Mary Poppins and Maria from The Sound of Music.
The Dame will now loan her distinct pipes to Shonda Rhimes’ upcoming project on the streaming service.
The series is based on the Bridgerton novels by Julia Quinn that is set amongst London’s high society in the early 1800s, specifically focusing on the Bridgerton family consisting of 8 close-knit siblings.
Andrew’s will provide the voice of Lady Whistledown who, with her anonymous social commentary combined with biting wit, makes her sounds like a vintage Gossip Girl.
Rhimes will serve as executive producer of the 8-episode series that will drop next year.
We wonder if there will be a “lonely boy” type character…
