The Gotham Group and Kevin Fortuna have secured the film rights to A.E. Hotchner's biography Papa Hemingway: A Personal Memoir, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Ellen Goldsmith-Vein, Peter McHugh and Fortuna will serve as producers.
The book focuses on the final 14 years of Hemingway's life. The author died in 1961 from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
"It is rare that we have such intimate, truthful knowledge about the life and, ultimately, demise of a true American icon," Goldsmith-Vein said.
Hemingway's novels include A Farewell To Arms, For Whom The Bell Tolls and The Garden Of Eden. He also wrote two plays and has released several short story collections.
