]]> The relationship between Kim Novak and Sammy Davis Jr. was met with a lot of scrutiny during the 1950s, and it will be at the center of the new period drama Scandalous. Sydney Sweeney and David Jonsson will play the iconic duo in this promising project, which hails from the Oscar nominee Colman Domingo.

Kim Novak and Sammy Davis Jr. met during an appearance on The Steve Allen Show in 1956, and the blossoming romance between them ruffled some feathers in Hollywood. Columbia Pictures chief Harry Cohn was opposed to it, and rumor has it that mobsters close to him tried to stop Davis from seeing Novak by any means necessary.

Miramax is developing this project, and they’re planning to get to work as soon as Sweeney and Domingo finish filming the third season of HBO’s Euphoria. Domingo is a recent Oscar nominee, who’ll make his feature directorial debut with this project, after directing several episodes of Fear the Walking Dead.

Euphoria star Sweeney is no stranger to carrying a major studio film on her shoulders, and we’ve recently seen her play lead roles in Anyone but You, Reality, and Immaculate. As for Jonsson, he rose to prominence while starring in HBO’s Industry, and went on to play major roles in Rye Lane and Alien: Romulus.
