Anthony Bourdain biopic in the works with award season darling Dominic Sessa in talks to star


Sessa, 21, is 'attached to star' in the film from Star Thrower Entertainment, as the renowned film company A24 is also in talks to obtain rights to the movie.

The company Star Thrower has past had success with biopics, including the 2021 film King Richard which received a Best Picture Academy Award nomination, with Will Smith collecting honors for Best Actor. Fellow celeb chef Jamie Oliver said on Instagram that the death of the culinary innovator left 'chefs and fans around the world with a massive foodie hole that simply can't be replaced.' A trip to Japan in the series' first season included an odd show with robots and scantily clad women, a visit with a death metal band and a meal shared with a woman involved in the city's sadomasochistic community.
