A new Audrey Hepburn biopic is currently casting its perfect Hepburn, but it’s not Lily Collins who has been fancast as the late actress for years.
Deadline reported Hepburn’s new biopic, titled Dinner With Audrey, has cast their lead role as Thomasin McKenzie, known for her roles in Late Night in Soho and Jojo Rabbit. Ansel Elgort is set to appear alongside McKenzie’s Hepburn as designer Count Hubert de Givenchy. Two-time Oscar nominee Michael Shannon is potentially on board for the project.
Dinner With Audrey is directed by Abe Sylvia, who has credits in Palm Royale, Dead to Me, and The Eyes of Tammy Faye. The film is set to explore Hepburn’s 40-year friendship with fashion designer de Givenchy over the course of one magical night in Paris. The dinner sparked their longtime collaboration on Hepburn’s most iconic outfits, including Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Funny Face, Charade, and Sabrina.
