Jennifer Lawrence to Team With Ron Howard for Zelda Fitzgerald Biopic
The drama, which is currently titled Zelda, is being developed by Ron Howard (Inferno), who is eyeing it as a potential directing vehicle.
Based on a screenplay by Emma Frost (The White Queen), the story centers on Zelda Fitzgerald, who was married to author F. Scott Fitzgerald and was her husband's indispensable muse and fiercest competitor. Desperate to define herself through her own art, the film explores the question: Can love exist between creative equals? Born in Montgomery, Alabama, Zelda Fitzgerald was dubbed by her husband as "the first American Flapper" but whose life descended into madness (she was diagnosed with schizophrenia).
This sounds exactly like her character in American Hustle why does she insist on these boring old wife roles
It's actually pretty smart. Bette Davis did the same thing back in the day - it meant there were less doors closed to her later on (though Bette suffered anyway, but more for standing up to the studios rather than ageing poorly).
She will get that second Oscar before she hits 30, bookmark me.
Though a Ron Howard movie may not be the way for it, she will still be amazing I am sure.
