Jennifer Lawrence And Ron Howard Attached To Zelda Fitzgerald Biopic

 

Jazz Age legend Zelda Fitzgerald is a character ripe for the big-screen treatment. A novelist and socialite who shot to fame during the early 1900s, her life and career often inspired the work of her significant other, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and it’s fair to say that the pair were the closest thing you’ll get to a power couple for their time.

We have confirmation that that story will indeed unfold on the silver screen, with Jennifer Lawrence attached to the part of Zelda Fitzgerald. Report reveals that Fitzgerald is the latest real-life figure that has caught the eye of the Oscar-winner, who is hot off portraying business magnate Joy Mangano. Ron Howard is said to be developing the biopic as a potential directing vehicle, overseeing a script penned by Emma Frost. It’ll take cues from Nancy Milford’s best-selling biography, Zelda.
