Details of the project are being kept quiet, but the film is being described as a decades-long portrait of one of the most successful entrepreneurs of all time.

LuPone returns to Broadway this season as Joanne in the revival of Stephen Sondheim's Company. She previously played that role on the West End in 2018, where she earned the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role in a Musical.

Nathan Lane most recently starred in Taylor Mac's absurdist black comedy Gary: A Sequel to Titus Andronicus at the Booth Theatre directed by George C. Wolfe, which received seven Tony Award nominations including Best Play.
