Jared Leto is set to take on the role of iconic artist Andy Warhol in a new biopic, which he is producing alongside Michael De Luca (The Social Network, Captain Phillips).
The film, titled Warhol, will be written by Terence Winter (Boardwalk Empire, The Wolf of Wall Street), using Victor Bockris’ 1989 book Warhol: The Biography, as his inspiration. The Hollywood Reporter states that the project is not intended as “a low-budget indie… but rather a strong mainstream project with prestige credentials.”
Oscar-winner Leto recently appeared as The Joker in Warner Bros.’ Suicide Squad, and is currently shooting the untitled Blade Runner sequel with director Denis Villeneuve.
