Directed by Lee Daniels, the upcoming biopic will “unapologetically present the complicated and irrepressible life” of the legendary jazz and swing singer.
Holiday, who was openly bisexual, will be played by Grammy-nominated singer Andra Day, with supporting performances from Trevante Rhodes, Garrett Hedlund and Miss Lawrence.
Orange is the New Black star Natasha Lyonne will portray Tallulah Bankhead, a stage actress who was romantically involved with Holiday for a number of years.
The film is based on Joann Hari’s critically-acclaimed book Chasing the Scream: The First and Last Days of the War on Drugs, which examined the history of drug criminalisation.
