Ewan McGregor will co-star in the Amelia Earhart biopic Amelia, reports Variety.

Hilary Swank, Richard Gere and Virginia Madsen have already boarded the project, which Mira Nair is directing.

The story centers on the legendary aviatrix (is that a real word?) and chronicles her rise to fame, marriage to publisher George Putnam (Gere) and passionate affair with Gene Vidal (McGregor), father of author Gore Vidal. Ronald Bass wrote the screenplay.
