Zooey Deschanel is in talks to play Ada Lovelace in the period biopic "Enchantress of Numbers" reports Production Weekly.
Daughter of Lord Byron, Lovelace was a 19th-century writer and key figure in the development of machines that went beyond simple mathematics and into more complex computational problems. In some ways she's considered the first computer programmer.
Bruce Beresford (Driving Miss Daisy) directs the project which begins shooting this Fall.
