Baz Luhrmann Still Interested in 'Alexander'

Archive

Even though friend Nicole Kidman and star Leo DiCaprio both came out saying it was dead, representatives of director Baz Luhrmann say otherwise.

“He still intends to make it”, a spokesperson said. “He currently has a number of projects in development and he has yet to decide which will be next on his slate.”

No comments were made concerning the ‘competition’ angle, but it is possible that Oliver Stone’s recent failure Alexander might not be the repealing factor it once was.

Luhrmann’s project, tentatively called ‘Alx’, was slated to star Leonardo DiCaprio as the Macedonian conqueror. Nicole Kidman was also approached to play his mother.
