The 70-year-old soul singer has shown interest following the departures last week of Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler - who quit after two seasons on the Fox show.
Franklin sent out an email on Saturday saying: 'Yes, I am interested as a judge,' when asked about a potential role on the talent programme, according to reports.
The 18-time Grammy winner would certainly bring a wealth of experience to the gig if she was to be given a place.
Freemantle Media -- the makers of Idol - or Fox are yet to comment on whether there would be interest in recruiting Franklin.
