Jack O'Connell (Unbroken, '71) will play the lead role in "the hotly anticipated Alexander McQueen biopic" based on Andrew Wilson's biography Blood Beneath the Skin, according to the Hollywood Reporter. Directed by Andrew Haigh (Weekend, 45 Years), the film about the late fashion icon features a script by Chris Urch, the award-winning playwright of The Rolling Stone and Land of Our Fathers. Damian Jones (The Iron Lady, Belle, Lady in the Van) is producing, with principal photography set to begin in January for delivery at the end of 2017.
