Jan. 12, 2010 - PRLog -- As Martin Scorsese draws closer to his masterpiece of Old Blue Eyes as reported by Reuters, a new lead for  Frank himself has emerged.

Universal Recording Artist, Michael Barber, an Irish an Italian born American has hit the eyes of Scorsese and even Yankees Owner Steinbrenner seems to like the decision.

The Blue Eyed, Barber, who currently is recording his debut on Universal Records is known for dating, Style Network TV Show Host, Danielle Fishel. He also has shopped two screen plays to Lions Gate Films.

The new movie on Ol' Blue Eyes is being shot by Universal Studios. The late singer's youngest daughter, Tina Sinatra, will be an executive producer and Phil Alden Robinson is writing the screenplay.

"Sinatra" will focus on his love affairs and marriages (including actresses Mia Farrow and Ava Gardner, who were 2 of his 4 wives), his friendship with President John Kennedy and the rest of the Rat Pack, including Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr, and Peter Lawford.

George Steinbrenner, who owns the Yankees, stated his claim for Michael Barber after a recent encounter at an event in Tampa, Florida before spring training.
