Ryan Gosling is lined up to produce a movie about Busby Berekeley, the famed Hollywood movie director and musical choreographer during the 'golden age' of the industry, having worked on such notable productions as '42nd Street' and 'She Had to Say Yes'.

Warner Bros have optioned the rights to Berkeley's biography 'Buzz: the Life and Art of Busby Berkeley' authored by Jeffrey Spivak, to Gosling and Marc Platt, the producer of 'Drive', the movie in which Gosling, of course, starred.

No news regarding who is set to play the part of Busby, but it would be no surprise to see Mr.Gosling, who has just finished the filming of his directorial-debut feature 'How to Catch A Monster', himself take on the role.
