Patrick Schwarzenegger and Margaret Qualley to team up for romantic drama
Patrick Schwarzenegger is to star in Love Of Your Life.
The White Lotus actor will reportedly appear opposite Margaret Qualley in the upcoming Amazon MGM Studios movie, which will be directed by Rachel Morrison.
Julia Cox wrote the script, and according to the Hollywood Reporter, the emotional drama follows a young woman (Qualley), who loses her husband goes on a journey to find a way to move on with her life, while Schwarzenegger will play an old friend and former lover.
Ryan Gosling and Jessie Henderson will produce Love Of Your Life through their Open Invite Entertainment banner, which was previously known as General Admission.
Filming is scheduled to begin in Europe in August.
Meanwhile, Patrick recently admitted he'd love to take the lead role in the upcoming American Psycho remake.
One fan wrote on X recently: 'Patrick Schwarzenegger, I've found your breakout role.'
To which, the actor replied: 'I'd love nothing more [wink].'
Luca Guadagnino is making a modern version of the 2000 Mary Harron horror classic - which starred Christian Bale as Patrick Bateman, a New York City investment banker who leads a double life as a serial killer - and recently teased 'the script is coming out very handsomely' for the flick.
Appearing in a video segment at CinemaCon, the filmmaker said: 'We are really working hard to bring to the screen a new adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis' American Psycho, a book that I deeply love that is something that influenced me so much.
'[Writer Scott Z. Burns] is doing an incredible job. The script is coming out very handsomely.'
Although Guadagnino didn't reveal any of the cast for his American Psycho movie, the director teased he was currently in 'conversation with very exciting performers to play the leads."
Last December, it was reported that Austin Butler would play Patrick Bateman in American Psycho.
The new film won't be a direct remake of the 2000 movie, with Guadagnino's version poised to be a new take on the story that will have a more significant erotic emphasis than the original picture.
Lionsgate film chief Adam Fogelson previously described the director as the 'perfect visionary' to helm the new cinematic iteration of American Psycho.
He said in a statement: 'We are thrilled to add another elite filmmaker to our upcoming slate. Luca is a brilliant artist, and the perfect visionary to create a whole new interpretation of this potent and classic IP.'

Michelle Monaghan 'craved' return to The White Lotus hairstyle
Michelle Monaghan has been "craving" a return to her White Lotus hairstyle. The 49-year-old actress - who played TV actress Jaclyn Lemon in the third season of HBO's anthology series - loving going blonde for the show and matching her co-stars Carrie Coon (Laurie Duffy) and Leslie Bibb (Kate Bohr), although she had to go back to brunette after filming due to other commitments. However, she told PEOPLE magazine: "I'm craving that change again and that transformation. I just wanted to be lighter and brighter for this summer. "I'm really excited to shed the brunette once again and get to play around with being blonde." Michelle doesn't necessarily want to match Jacyln's look, and she's keen to find a balance between that and her usual style. She added: "I don't think we'll be as blonde as Jaclyn, but I think we'll be somewhere in between." She'll be getting some help from Goldwell colourist Kirby Lago, who thinks a "buttery, warm" vibe is best. Kirby told the outlet: "I'm creating a really soft hazel base and then really popping it with some buttery warm blonde tones. It'll be really nice on her skin tone." She explained that she's using a range of Goldwell products to help, including the "really luxurious" SilkLift range, and both the Bond Pro and Bond Pro II. She added: "That's the thing with blondes now, hair needs to look glossy and healthy. Gone are the days of really over-processed blondes that are a matte porous texture. "It's really important that the hairstylists are taking the steps to nourish and look after the hair as it's lifting. "Now all of a sudden it's, 'Wow, I can go this blonde and it can feel soft and touchable and shiny and I don't need to put [extensions] in. That's a win-win for everybody." Meanwhile, Michelle was surprise by the way the trio's blonde looks caught on with The White Lotus fans. She said: "[Show creator] Mike [White] was like, 'I really want all of you to be a big blonde blob.' "Which is why he wanted me to go blonde. We had no idea that the blonde, [Leslie's] bob, all of the things would take hold in the way that they did."

Sydney Sweeney details 'crazy' transformation to play Christy Martin in biopic
Sydney Sweeney didn't fit into any of her clothes after she gained around 30lbs to play Christy Martin in a new biopic. The Euphoria actress is to star as the former professional boxer in an as-yet untitled movie, and Sweeney has told how she underwent a "crazy" transformation to get into character. Speaking to W Magazine, she said: "I came onboard to play Christy, and I had about three and a half months of training. "I started eating. "My body was completely different. "I didn't fit in any of my clothes. I'm usually a size 23 in jeans, and I was wearing a size 27. "My boobs got bigger. And my butt got huge. It was crazy! "I was like, 'Oh my god.' But it was amazing. I was so strong, like crazy strong." As well as eating more, the 'White Lotus' star had to train hard for the role, revealing she hit the weights for two hours a day and kickboxed for two hours. She added: "I weight-trained in the morning for an hour, kickboxed midday for about two hours, and then weight-trained again at night for an hour." Fans first discovered Sweeney had been cast to portray the boxing trailblazer, who has been described by producers as the "female Rocky", in May 2024. Speaking about the movie, the 'Anyone But You' star told Deadline at the time: "Christy Martin not only legitimized female boxing, she overcame gender stereotypes, and fought through emotional, physical, and financial abuse. "I'm passionate about the fighting world, Christy's story shines a light on her incredible rise to the top while showing the struggles of fame behind the curtains. "I feel compelled to tell a story about a woman who faced so much adversity and didn't allow it to defeat her. It's powerful, and emotional." Training for the movie wasn't Sweeney's first foray into kickboxing. She explained: "I grappled and did kickboxing from 12-19 years old. I've been itching to get back into the ring, train, and transform my body. "Christy's story isn't a light one, it's physically and emotionally demanding, there's a lot of weight to carry. But I love challenging myself."
