Robert Luketic will direct “All Out of Love: The Air Supply Story” for Altit Media Group. The film follows the two founding members of Air Supply, Graham Russell and Russell Hitchcock, as they pursue their musical dreams, ultimately breaking big with such chart-toppers as “Every Woman in the World,” “Lost in Love” and, the film’s title song, “All Out of Love.”

In Luketic, the project gets a director with a proven box office track record — Luketic oversaw both “Legally Blonde” films, two of the biggest hits of Reese Witherspoon’s career, as well as the Jennifer Lopez and Jane Fonda comedy, “Monster-In-Law,” another commercial success.
Casting on the film, which features a script from BAFTA-nominated screenwriter Stuart Beattie (“Pirates of the Caribbean,” Baz Luhrman’s “Australia”), is currently underway.
Altit Media Group’s Dean Altit will produce, while Barry Seigel, Jesse Weiner, Julia Xu, and Johnny Hsu will serve as executive producers. Filming is set to take place in Australia and the U.K. during the first quarter of 2025. The film will be released to celebrate the band’s 50th anniversary.
Luketic’s other credits include the “The Ugly Truth,” a rom-com with Katherine Heigl and Gerard Butler, and the heist drama “21.” On TV, Luketic has directed episodes of “Jane the Virgin” on The CW and “Schmigadoon!” on Apple TV+.

Air Supply found major success with seven top-five singles in a row. The band has sold more than 100 million albums worldwide and played over 5,000 shows. Other hits include “Here I Am,” “Even the Nights Are Better” and “Making Love Out of Nothing at All.”
“’All Out of Love’ is an emotional and triumphant testament to the musical genius of two Australians, Russell Hitchcock and Graham Russell, who are behind some of the world’s greatest love songs,” Luketic said. “I firmly believe that this is a story that everyone should know, and I can’t wait to bring it to life.”
Altit recently wrapped production on “Home Sweet Home Rebirth” starring Michele Morrone and Urassaya Sperbund, adapted from the video game franchise “Home Sweet Home.” His recent credits include “Not Without Hope” starring Zachary Levi and Josh Duhamel, “The Misfits” starring Pierce Brosnan, and “The Good Neighbor” starring Jonathan Rhys Meyers.
Luketic is represented by CAA, Mosaic, and Goodman, Genow, Schenkman, Smelkinson & Christopher.
