Sparkly dresses, disco tunes, platform shoes, Studio 54... it's all about the 1970's in Showtime's new drama, Studio, which centers on the iconic New York nightclub that brought it all home. Bryan Singer -- undoubtedly one of the busiest guys in Hollywood -- is in talks to direct the pilot, with writer Chad Hodge and Hairspray producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron helming the project.
Studio will begin in the months leading up to the club's April 1977 opening. Though fictional, the series will revolve around the real-life co-founder of the club, the flamboyant Steve Rubell.
