Is there an actor out there up to the job of playing Kate Moss? The supermodel seems to think so, because on Thursday, reported that she will be executive producing a biopic about her relationship with Lucian Freud, the acclaimed British painter who died in 2011. Titled, the film is set to be a dramatized account about an experience Moss considers one of the most important of her career: her nude portrait session with Freud when she was pregnant with her daughter Lila in 2002.
Apart from fulfilling her life-long goal, Freud also had a huge influence on Moss’s lifestyle. “He taught me discipline, because I could not be late,” she once said inwith SHOWStudio’s Nick Knight. “If I was five minutes late, he would kick off.
Funnily enough, neither Moss nor Freud cared much for the painting when he finally finished. “He didn’t really like the picture, and I didn’t really,” she continued. “I mean, I had a great time. [But] it’s not, like, my favorite Lucian painting.” From the sound of it, it sounds like it’ll be a minute before we get to see Lucas’s recreation of that “great time”; there’s no word on the casting or release date just yet.
