Boyhood <\/i>director Richard Linklater is reportedly setting his sights on his next cinematic endeavor, tentatively titled Blue Moon<\/i>, that will explore the famed American songwriting duo Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart and their parting of ways. While the details are still unfolding, Deadline <\/i>reports that Linklater is in the developmental stages of this project, which could potentially mark his next directorial venture following the upcoming release of Netflix\u2019s Hit Man<\/i>.<\/p>\n

Inspired by the titular 1934 ballad penned by Rodgers and Hart, Blue Moon<\/i> is said to look at the their partnership, particularly focusing on Hart\u2019s struggle to reconcile his own aspirations with Rodgers\u2019 soaring success, with the Broadway triumph of Oklahoma<\/i>!<\/p>\n

Penned by Robert Kaplow, known for his collaboration with Linklater on Me and Orson Welles<\/i>, the script would attempt to explore the dynamics between the two musical geniuses, whose collaboration birthed timeless classics such as \u201cA Connecticut Yankee,\u201d \u201cBabes in Arms,\u201d and \u201cPal Joey,\u201d among others; as well as Hart\u2019s battle with alcoholism and mental health issues that strained the relationship. <\/p>\n

The eventual dissolution of the Rodgers and Hart partnership paved the way for Rodgers\u2019 iconic collaboration with Oscar Hammerstein II, birthing groundbreaking works like Carousel, South Pacific, <\/i>and The Sound of Music,<\/i> reshaping the landscape of musical theater.<\/p>\n

Amidst the buzz surrounding Linklater\u2019s upcoming Hit Man<\/i>, which garnered attention for Glen Powell\u2019s standout performance, anticipation builds for Blue Moon.<\/i><\/p>\n
