Thurman Will Drink OJ As "Anita"

Uma Thurman will star as anti-gay activist Anita Bryant in the biopic "Anita" says Deadline.


The story follows the singer and orange juice spokeswoman who, after allowing a gay screenwriter into her home, is forced to confront her past as an anti-gay Christian crusader. Bryant successfully campaigned to overturn a gay rights law in Florida and destroyed her show biz career in the process.

Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman will direct from a screenplay by Chad Hodge ("The Playboy Club").

"Sex And the City" creator Darren Star, Howard Rosenman, Jeffrey Schwarz and Dennis Erdman will produce.
