Marianne Faithfull and Sofia Coppola

Bob Dylan turn-downer Marianne Faithfull has some stuff in the works. Here's the story from nme.com:

MARIANNE FAITHFULL has re-scheduled her LONDON show for June. The gig, along with the rest of the singer’s dates, were pulled after she collapsed in Milan in December with chronic exhaustion. On doctor’s orders she was forced to abandon the rest of her scheduled dates. She will now play Shepherd’s Bush Empire on June 5, with other European shows expected to be re-scheduled.

...Meanwhile, Faithfull is to appear in Sofia Coppola’s forthcoming biopic of Marie-Antionette. Kirsten Dunst plays the lead role, and Faithfull will play her mother, Empress Marie-Theresa of Austria.

Yikes.
