Everything we know so far about the ‘’Moss & Freud’’

Considered a fashion icon all over the world with her distinctive style and charming aura, Kate Moss manages to stay on the agenda not only with her recent works but also with the statements she made about her private life. But the last news we heard about kate moss is a little different from the others. Focusing on Moss' experience of posing for painter Lucian Freud in 2002, when she was pregnant with her daughter Lila, the biopic 'Moss & Freud' will bring the nine months of the supermodel's life to the big screen.

The story of a portrait: ‘’Moss & Freud’'

The desire to paint Kate Moss, which the painter Freud described as one of his dreams, who died at the age of 88 in 2011, came true when Kate Moss accepted this offer. Moss, who agreed to pose for Freud, was undoubtedly at one of the turning points in her life when she was pregnant with her daughter, Lila. Although the portrait that Freud created depicting Moss's pregnancy was sold for 3.5 million pounds at Christie's in 2005, it is obvious that there is still something worth talking about the painting at the center of the project, which is preparing to be brought to the big screen.

For now, all we know is that Moss will also serve as an executive producer in the movie ‘’Moss & Freud’’, and scenario written by Oscar and Academy Award-winning screenwriter James Lucas. Besides, we heard that Moss is currently working really hard to develop the project.

 “Having been involved in the project and script development from the beginning I am now very excited to see the film come to life.” - As Moss stated in a press release.

We might see Moss’s real-life clothes

One of the things that excite us most about the project is that the actress who will play Moss will also have the chance to dress in the supermodel's clothes. Considering the British fashion icon's extensive clothing collection dating back to the '90s, it is not unlikely that a few vintage pieces will be using in the film.

Ellie Bamber will be Kate Moss

Ellie Bamber, whom some of us know as Elora from Disney's Willow, India from Nocturne Animals, and Angela in the Serpent, will play Kate Moss and, Freud will be played by actor and film director Derek Jacobi, who is considered worthy for many awards including Tony and Emmy. 

Although there is no official statement about the rest of the cast or the release date of the movie, the movie has already started to arouse curiosity in both cinema and fashion circles.
