We often end up writing about movies that have been stuck in various stages of development for years that eventually find the right circumstances to finally coalesce into a finished movie. That's the mercurial nature of the industry, but here's a passion project that's the longest-running dream I can remember. Warren Beatty (Dick Tracy) has been working on a Howard Hughes movie for forty years (!), and 20th Century Fox has just released the first trailer and poster. It's called Rules Don't Apply, and it's not a traditional biopic; he plays Hughes, but Lily Collins and Alden Ehrenreich (who starred in Hail, Caesar!, another Hollywood period piece, and will star in the upcoming Han Solo spin-off) are the main characters who move to Hollywood in the late fifties and get swept up in a forbidden romance.

I'd suggest watching the first minute or two of this trailer to see if it looks like something you'd be interested in, and then not finishing it. As usual with trailers these days, it seems to give away a majority of the storyline, and I sort of feel like I've seen the whole movie already.

Matthew Broderick, Alec Baldwin, Martin Sheen, Annette Bening, Steve Coogan, Ed Harris, and more co-star.

Rules Don't Apply hits theaters on November 23, 2016.
