Based on the short but extraordinary life of the brilliant warrior-conqueror who ruled over the largest empire ever to fall under one man, filming "Alexander the Great" is the long-held cinematic dream of De Laurentiis, the legendary producer of several decades' worth of memorable motion pictures. Working with Luhrmann continues De Laurentiis' lifelong dedication to working with visionary directors, from his early work with Federico Fellini (on films awarded two Oscars) and Vittorio De Sica through contemporary mavericks such as David Lynch. In 2001, De Laurentiis received the prestigious Irving G. Thalberg Academy Award in recognition of his lifetime contribution to the motion picture industry.
