MUMBAI: Director Alex Holmes has been signed by XYZ Films, Time Inc Studios and producer Tamir Ardon to direct their feature film that is based on auto industry maverick John DeLorean.
The story recounts the latter years of the auto mogul‘s life when he was arrested for drug trafficking by the FBI and eventually acquitted on grounds of entrapment.
Holmes, who wrote and directed several episodes of BBC and HBO‘s acclaimed House of Saddam, will direct from the screenplay he is developing with Rob Warr. The pair had previously worked together on BBC‘s BAFTA Award winner Dunkirk.
Holmes is also working on an adaptation of Robert Mazur‘s book The Infiltrator about Pablo Escobar and the Medellin Cartel for 2929 Productions. He is also set to direct the Warner Bros. produced film The Interpretation Of Murder.
