While the storyline of the film has yet to be announced, it’s described to “cover the key relationships in Karl Lagerfeld’s life, told through an unpredictable lens, much like the man himself.” Leto shared in a press release, “Karl has always been an inspiration to me. He was a true polymath, an artist, an innovator, a leader and, most importantly, a kind man.” He continued, “When we came together with the KARL LAGERFELD team, we immediately shared a creative vision of doing a respectful ode to Karl while forward the artistic boundaries of what a biopic can be. I’m so grateful to Karo, Pier and Seb for allowing us to go on this journey together.”
Rhigi noted that the fashion brand has been “approached by several Hollywood producers who suggested to partner on a movie about Karl’s iconic life” and that “it has been only since we met Jared and Emma [Ludbrook] that we felt truly confident about the story being told in the artistic way Karl would have loved to see.”
