Deadline has reported that a Chris Farley biography is in the works, with Paul Walter Hauser attached to play the comedian and actor. Josh Gad is reportedly set to direct with Lorne Michaels attached as producer.
The movie will be based on the 2009 book The Chris Farley Show: A Biography In Three Acts, which chronicles Farley’s life, including his battle with addiction that would ultimately end up leading to a drug overdose in 1997.
