digard 2Fox Searchlight is currently preparing a pitch package for a biopic of the sexploitation great and inventor of the nudie cutie Russ Meyer, with The Fighter director David O. Russell attached as director. The film is being written by Merritt Johnson, who also scripted the upcoming Linda Lovelace biopic Lovelace. Oh, to be the research assistant on those projects!

We here at Skin Central consider Russ Meyer to be one of the most towering figures in the entire history of skinema, so the creative team behind this project has some massive cups to fill. Speaking of cups- who will be tapped to play the the 40FF Tura Santana? Or the 38HH Kitten Natividad? The mind boobles- er, we mean, boggles- at the possibilities.
