Richie shares his anticipation
Accordingly, the film is not an autobiographical story of Richie, but the songs of the musician are in the foreground. Richie himself, Dana Brunetti (46, "Fifty Shades of Gray") and Pete Chiarelli (45, "Die Unfassbaren 2"), who will write the screenplay, are involved in the production. On Instagram and Twitter Richie already shared his joy and linked to the article from "Variety" with the sentence: "It is big in the making."
