Shirley Maclaine as Coco Chanel

Shirley Maclaine, will play Coco Chanel in an upcoming Lifetime TV miniseries, which chronicles the icon's later years in Paris, after she exiled herself in Germany and Switzerland during World War II. Fashionista reports that the project is supported by both Chanel and Karl Lagerfeld, with costume designer Stefano de Nardis even getting archival research from the company. Meanwhile rumors swirl that Demi Moore is in talks for an American Chanel movie and a feature-length movie has currently begun production in Paris, with Audrey Tatou as the lead.

I'm looking forward to watching this!
