Deadline reports that a new biographical drama, Dinner with Audrey, is in development. The film will depict the decades-long friendship between actress Audrey Hepburn and designer Hubert de Givenchy.
Leading roles are set to be played by Thomasin McKenzie (Last Night in Soho) and Ansel Elgort (Baby Driver). Michael Shannon (Man of Steel) appears in a supporting role. The project is to be directed by Abe Sylvia (Palm Royale).
The story is set over the course of a single evening in Paris. Hepburn first met Givenchy on the set of Sabrina in 1953, and she wore a Givenchy gown to the Academy Awards when she accepted the Oscar for Roman Holiday in 1954.
No release date has been announced.
