It's been a few years since Jamie Bell first showed off his dancing prowess in Billy Elliot, but he's back in dancing shoes alongside another proven hoofer, Margaret Qualley. They'll star together as two of the most famous performers of all time, Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers in new biopic Fred & Ginger.
With Jonathan Entwistle directing from Arash Amel's script, Fred & Ginger goes behind the beloved stage personas of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, examining what individually drove them while celebrating the creative magic between them. The biopic will tell the untold, real love story between the two legends both on and off the screen.
The big question: will either of them perform a scene backwards and in heels? That remains to be seen. With Max Minghella aboard to produce, the film should shoot next year.
