Joseph Fiennes is Antonio Vivaldi number two

Joseph Fiennes is Antonio Vivaldi number two October 8, 2006

I still haven’t seen Antonio Vivaldi: A Prince in Venice, but since the VIFF added a third screening — due to the film’s popularity, apparently — I might get around to it yet.

In the meantime, Variety reports that Joseph Fiennes will play the title character in Boris Damast’s Antonio Vivaldi, based on a screenplay that Jeffrey Freedman has been researching for “more than two decades”. The cast also includes Lena Headey, Malcolm McDowell, Jacqueline Bisset and Zuleikha Robinson.

No word on the status of the Ron Howard / Brian Grazer version.
