Ewan McGregor agreed to co-star in the Amelia Earhart biopic “Amelia.”  

Hilary Swank, Richard Gere and Virginia Madsen have already boarded the project, which Mira Nair is directing.

Story centers on the legendary aviatrix (Swank) and follows her ascend to fame, marriage to publisher George Putnam (Gere) and passionate affair with Gene Vidal (McGregor), father of author Gore Vidal.

Reported in Variety, the filmmakers have long been trying to land McGregor but were having trouble working out the scheduling. The actor is about to wrap “I Love You, Philip Morris” alongside Jim Carrey and will begin work on Ron Howard’s “Da Vinci Code” follow-up “Angels and Demons” in early June. McGregor will sandwich the “Amelia” role in between.
