Actress Jennifer Lawrence has been attached to play lead in Zelda Fitzgerald biopic from director Ron Howard. The 26-year-old Oscar winner is expected to play the late Jazz Age icon.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, she will also serve as one of the producers for the upcoming true-story film.
Zelda was married to author F Scott Fitzgerald who saw her as his indispensable muse and fiercest competitor. Based on a screenplay by Emma Frost (The White Queen), the movie simply titled Zelda is going to explore the question: Can love exist between creative equals?
Lawrence was last seen in the superhero flick X-Men: Apocalypse earlier this year. She will next share screen with Chris Pratt in the romantic sci-fi thriller Passengers and star in an untitled Darren Aronofsky project.
