Kate Winslet was in talks to play fashion mogul Vivienne Westwood in an upcoming planned movie on her life story.

Kate has scrapped plans as it has been alleged that Westwood was not happy with Kate as choice to play her.

A source told the British newspaper The Mail on Sunday:

“Kate’s people are saying she was never formally committed to the project but there are whispers Dame Vivienne didn’t want Kate playing her. In fact Vivienne doesn’t seem keen on the film being made at all.”  Westwood has already spoken of her disdain for the movie project, insisting she “doesn’t know what is happening, but hopefully they (Univeral) will drop it.”
