We're told Scott first met with Warwick's son to present his vision for the biopic -- something in tune with"The Social Network," another film he produced about a famous person -- then spoke with Dionne directly and they all agreed ... he was the right man for the job.
Our sources say since January, Rudin's been working on developing the movie and had even begun hiring writers, but before he and Dionne's team could ink a deal ... the story broke about Scott allegedly abusing his employees. ICYMI ... Rudin's been accused of mistreating and bullying staffers for years. The allegations include sexist and racist behavior, as well as claims that he threw items -- like glass bowls and potatoes -- at his colleagues and assistants, causing injury.
In light of that news ... we're told Dionne and her team have backed away from the deal with Rudin for now, and are waiting to see how things pan out. We've reached out to Scott's team too ... so far, no word back.
“Movie about Dionne Warwick's life could be collateral damage in Theaters because of producer Scott Rudin's workplace bullying scandal allegations against him.” There, fixed it for ya! You people are RIDICULOUS with that headline making it as if she’s one accused of bullying.🙄
