According to The Hollywood Reporter, the project is in early development and has been in the works since 2007.
Of Leto's casting Ratner told THR: "Jared is an old friend. When he heard I got the rights to Hef's story, he told me, 'I want to play him. I want to understand him.' And I really believe Jared can do it. He's one of the great actors of today."
