Zach Quinto as Gershwin? S'Marvelous

Nikke Finke's Deadline Hollywood reports that Pittsburgh native Zachary Quinto, who distinguished himself by playing Spock in the reinvention of "Star Trek," could be starring as George Gershwin in a movie by Steven Spielberg.

The project comes because Spielberg dropped out of "Harvey," a remake of the James Stewart classic.

Deadline Hollywood reports: "... DreamWorks is even supplying accent and dialogue coaches for Quinto, and shooting could begin as soon as April. Doug Wright wrote the script, and Marc Platt and singer/pianist Michael Feinstein are producing."
