When thinking of Lucille Ball, most would naturally make the I Love Lucy connection and leave it at that.
This seems not to be the case, as Sorkin has said there won’t be much I Love Lucy in the biopic at all.
The biopic is set to star Nicole Kidman as Lucille Ball and Javier Bardem as Desi Arnaz, so the all-star cast is already a promising leg up for the film.
It seems that Aaron Sorkin is on a bit of a roll – the director has had great success with the recent release of The Trial of the Chicago 7, and he’s now working on a biopic of Lucille Ball that’s titled Being The Ricardos.
