The series will be based on a story treatment from Hepburn’s son Luca Dotti, whose father was Italian psychiatrist Andrea Dotti and was married to Hepburn for 10 years starting in 1970, and Italian journalist and writer Luigi Spinola.
“Luca and Luigi explored the singularity of Audrey’s real self,” Wildside wrote in a statement about the book.
Audrey is being executive produced by Wildside CEO Mario Gianani and Lorenzo Gangarossa with Ludovica Damiani, who first began developing the project, alongside Dotti and Spinola.
Wildside is the Freemantle banner best-known for producing the Jude Law-led The Young Pope limited series and its 2020 follow-up, as well as the acclaimed drama My Brilliant Friend.
