“Dallas Buyers Club” and “Wild” director Jean-Marc Vallée is in talks to direct the long-gestating Janis Joplin biopic “Get It While You Can,” which has Amy Adams attached to star.
The plan is for Vallée to direct the film in the second half of 2015, after he finishes work on the recently wrapped “Demolition” starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Naomi Watts.
“Dallas Buyers Club” writers Craig Borten and Melissa Wallack are also in talks to do a rewrite on the script, which has an original draft by Ron and Theresa Terry. An unnamed financier is also set to finance the project, which has no distributor attached yet.
