Rock star/actress Madonna may have commanded near $1000 a ticket for some of her concerts, but her next appearance won't be quite so pricey.

The blonde diva will star in her husband Guy Ritchie's next movie, 'Swept Away,' a remake of the 1975 Italian love story. Madonna was a woman to be reckoned with in Evita but this time we may see a softer side to the "boy toy."

The filming schedule hasn't been set yet, but a love story is a bit off the beaten path for Guy. His last two movies, Snatch and Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels, are both dark comedies. This won't be the first time the couple have worked together. Madonna starred in Guy's Internet movie for BMW and also directed Madonna's "What It Feels Like For A Girl" music video. You may not have seen the video as MTV and VH1 banned the video after airing only once.
