Nicole Kidman and Javier Bardem are in talks to secure roles in the upcoming Lucille Ball-Desi Arnaz flick, "Being the Ricardos," according to reports.

The film will follow the relationship between the famed "I Love Lucy" co-stars, and will be directed by Aaron Sorkin ("Molly's Game," "The Trial of the Chicago 7"), Deadline and Variety report. 

The prolific filmmaker has also written the script, which will reportedly be produced for Amazon Studios and Escape Artists.

Additionally, the two will face crises that could put an end to their careers and their marriage, per the outlets. 

Sorkin, who is known mostly for his writing, was originally set only to pen the script, but his time directing "Chicago 7" led him to direct as well. Sorkin won an Academy Award in 2011 for writing "The Social Network" and picked up a slew of awards for writing "The West Wing."

It's currently unknown when production will begin due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, but the film has gained steam after "Chicago 7" debuted on Netflix.
