Sayonara 2016! As we wait to learn and experience more of what this new 2017th year of existence has in store for all of us, one positive thing is for certain: New year = new start!
And for starters, there are a few epic moments that we already know will happen in 2017. Check out three of the most amazing below. Happy new year!
Alexander McQueen Biopic
Announced in late October 2016, a biopic, based on the Alexander McQueen biography "Blood Beneath the Skin" by Andrew Wilson will start filming Spring 2017, and will hit movie theaters later the same year.
Starring former "Skins" heartthrob Jack O'Connell, all of buzzy buzz surrounding this movie seem to unanimously agree that the actor closely resembles the troubled designer, who committed suicide in 2010 at the age of 40.
We can't wait to see McQueen's incredible life story be brought to life.
