Magnolia Pictures acquires Andre Leon Talley fashion documentary

Magnolia Pictures has picked up Kate Novack's biopic on former "Vogue" magazine editor-at-large Andre Leon Talley, with the film slated for release next year.

The fashion documentary, which is soon to premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, chronicles the life and career of Talley, from Andy Warhol's Factory in the 1970s to his coveted post at US "Vogue".

Set to feature interviews with Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, as well as designers Marc Jacobs, Tom Ford and Valentino, the film is also said to include archival footage of the flamboyant fashion guru.

Magnolia has scheduled the pic to debut in theatres for spring 2018.
