Dominic Sessa and Antonio Banderas to lead Anthony Bourdain biopic


The Holdovers breakout and Oscar nominee will head the cast of Tony, which will follow the food world legend in 1976

The casting had been initially rumoured last year, but the 22-year-old has now made it official, with Oscar nominee Antonio Banderas also joining in a role that is being kept under wraps. Production is set to start next month with A24 backing and Matt Johnson directing a script by Todd Bartels and Lou Howe. Since his debut role in Alexander Payne’s Oscar-winning comedy drama The Holdovers, Sessa has completed three films set to come out this year.
