Sabrina Carpenter and Margaret Qualley are stepping into the world of classic Hollywood.
The two actresses have joined the cast of the upcoming Fred Astaire biopic, which stars Tom Holland as the legendary dancer, actor and singer.
The untitled film will follow Astaire’s rise from vaudeville performer to one of Hollywood’s most celebrated stars. Known for his unforgettable dance partnerships, sophisticated screen presence and decades-long career, Astaire remains one of the most influential entertainers of Hollywood’s golden age.
Holland is set to lead the film as Astaire, taking on a role that will require plenty of dancing and performance work. The project is expected to explore both Astaire’s career and his life away from the spotlight.
For Carpenter, the casting marks another major movie role as her acting career continues to expand beyond music. The pop star has recently taken on increasingly prominent Hollywood projects, while Qualley has built an acclaimed filmography that includes roles in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Maid and The Substance.
With Holland, Carpenter and Qualley now attached, the Fred Astaire biopic is shaping up to be one of the more star-studded upcoming Hollywood projects.
More details, including the actresses’ characters and the film’s release date, are expected to be announced as production moves forward.
