Glamorama (lost screenplay of unproduced film; 2010s)
The book that the movie would've been based on.
Status: Lost
Glamorama is a cancelled film adaptation of the 1998 Bret Easton Ellis novel of the same name. The novel is a satirical thriller about fame and fashion, set in the 1990's. [1]
Director Roger Avary, who directed the 2002 film adaptation of another Ellis novel, The Rules of Attraction, had written a screenplay adaptation of Glamorama with the intention of directing it. Actor Kip Pardue was tentatively attached to play the main character, Victor Ward (a character he played in The Rules of Attraction and Glitterati).[2]
The movie project never moved beyond the pre-production stage. When asked about the film's status in an interview several years after it had been announced, Ellis said: "I think the days of being able to make that movie are over."[3]
The screenplay adaptation that Avary wrote has never been publicly released in any format.
