Darren Aronofsky is heading back to drama, and you can’t blame him after he struck it big with 2010′s “Black Swan.” Now, he is in business with the Oscar veterans at the Weinstein Co., which have tapped Aronofsky to direct GET HAPPY, the anticipated Judy Garland biopic starring Anne Hathaway.
Earlier this month word was that Jaffe Cohen had signed on to pen the script, which is based on the book “Get Happy: The Life of Judy Garland,” written by Gerald Clarke. The pic will follow the true life story of American actress and singer Judy Garland, who, despite her professional triumphs, battled many personal problems, including a long running battle with drug and alcohol addiction, money woes and a string of divorces.
Kelly Carmichael will oversee for the Weinsteins.
