The Oscar-winning director and Emmy-winning TV producer are developing the potential series based on the 2011 book Death and Dolce Vita: The Dark Side of Rome in the 1950s by Stephen Gundle. According to Deadline, "the true crime novel investigates the murder scandal that rocked Italy and portrays the Rome of romance, luxury, and glamour–as well as a city of carnal crimes, sex, drugs, corruption, and cover-ups. The series is not related to Federico Fellini’s acclaimed 1960s feature La Dolce Vita, which explored the same decade in Rome from a very different perspective."
