Luca Guadagnino teams up with Seth Rogen for Scotty And The Secret History Of Hollywood adaptation

According to Deadline, Call Me By Your Name’s Luca Guadagnino is set to direct a narrative movie based on Matt Tyrnauer’s documentary Scotty And The Secret History Of Hollywood, with Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg writing the script. The documentary was based on Scotty Bowers’ memoir Full Service, which detailed his time serving as a “hustler and date-arranger” (as Deadline puts it) for gay celebrities from the ‘40s to the ‘80s. His operation was initially based out of a gas station that he ran, hence the title of his memoir, with him essentially just providing a safe and confidential place to facilitate famous people hooking up with whoever they wanted to hook up with. Bowers ended his operation in the ‘80s due to the start of the AIDS crisis.
