A Hollywood movie is being made about the late trader Marc Rich, who was indicted on counts of tax evasion by Rudy Giuliani and illegally traded oil with Iran before being pardoned by President Bill Clinton.

Film producer Uri Singer, whose recent films include “Experimenter” and “Like Sunday, Like Rain,” is working on the biopic, which is based on the book “The King of Oil” by Daniel Ammann.

“Oil” covers the period that Rich started trading all the way to a third act that focuses on his controversial pardon by Clinton.

“We show the real facts, what [Rich] did, how he did it. People will be the judge,” Singer tells us. “It is very timely, because it has to do a lot with money and how money gets the wheels of this world [going] and government and presidents to work.”

Singer met Giuliani in the Hamptons last summer while shooting the Jon Hamm flick “Marjorie Prime.”

“He had a lot of anger still on the Rich saga and the involvement of the Clintons,” Singer says.

The flick will begin shooting in the fall with an “A-list cast,” we’re told. No word on casting, but we’d pick Goldie Hawn to play Denise Rich.
