According to Variety, Scott is currently in negotiations for Jolie to play Patrizia Reggiani in the drama.
Reggiani was sentenced to 29 years in prison for murdering her ex-husband, Maurizio Guzzi, in 1995. The deceased was the grandson of the founder of the Gucci fashion empire, Guccio Gucci, and had inherited the business. In 1995, he was about to launch a brand new collection with Tom Ford when he was found dead outside his apartment in Milan.
The film will focus on Maurizio Gucci. Scott has already approached Leonardo DiCaprio to play the role, but nothing has been confirmed.
In the meantime, we can see Angelina Jolie starring in Salt on July 23, 2010.
