Knightley is 'The Beautiful and the Damned' (THR)
By Nancy Tartaglione-Vialatte
Keira Knightley is in discussions to play Zelda in Nick Cassavetes’ “The Beautiful and the Damned,” the period love story about the relationship between F. Scott Fitzgerald and his wife, Zelda Sayre. Production is eyeing an April start, says The Hollywood Reporter.
"Damned" revolves around Zelda and Fitzgerald, who were Jazz Age icons known for living large, soaring high and crashing hard. Fitzgerald used their relationship as material for his novels as did Sayre.
“Damned” was Fitzgerald’s second novel and was published in 1922. Hanna Weg wrote the screenplay for the latest screen adaptation.
Lance Sloane and Devin Sloane are producing with Film Department's Mark Gill and Robert Katz.
