The nascent movie arm of
Sony BMG Music Entertainment is developing a movie about
Chicago bluesmen Muddy Waters, Little Walter and Howlin' Wolf.
"Cadillac Records" will be directed for Sony BMG Film by
Darnell Martin ("Their Eyes Were Watching God"), who also wrote
the script. Casting is underway, and Sony BMG anticipates
landing some of its artists in the film's lead roles.
Production will begin this year in Chicago.
Sony BMG Film was established in August 2005 to make
music-related films for theatrical release.
