THR:
Steven Soderbergh will direct the project, written by Richard LaGravenese.
Michael Douglas and Matt Damon have been tapped to star in HBO Films’ Liberace biopic.
Behind the Candelabrawill star Douglas as Liberace in the project that takes a behind-the-scenes look at the relationship between the legendary entertainer and Scott Thorson, his younger, live-in lover (Damon).
Liberace was a very talented piano player and musician. I remember seeing him in a video once and wondering who he was and then saw the name but the piano playing was awesome. He must have lived a very interesting life for them to be making this film.
