Oh well... here's to the Audrey Tautou version(below), which will be overseen by Karl Lagerfeld and begins filming on the 15th September, for a 2009 release.
Upcoming biopic Coco avant Chanel (Coco Before Chanel). It is not the ad campaign in which the French actress will soon front for Chanel's iconic No.5 fragrance. Directed by Anne Fontaine, Tautou plays a the young designer from her obscure childhood to her rise to the top.
