Written by Art Linson with Jeffrey Ross, the movie will be produced by Art Linson (Into the Wild), John Linson, Jon Kilik and Robert De Niro. Shannon Costello will be associate producing.
HBO has been attracting great actors and the best in TV business for years, but more recently it’s been making a bid for the top behind-the-scenes film talent as well. They had Todd Haynes directing the acclaimed Mildred Pierce mini-series, recently announced they’d be funding Steven Soderbergh’s Liberace biopic, and now
