Will Smith has bottled up a new movie project after optioning the film rights to wine saga The Billionaire's Vinegar: The Mystery Of The World's Most Expensive Bottle Of Wine.

Bosses at the movie star's production company were won over by Benjamin Wallace's chronicle of the auction house fight for a 1787 bottle of Chateau Lafite, which was rumored to have belonged to U.S. President Thomas Jefferson.

Wallace claimed that Jefferson was duped into thinking the wine was a rare vintage and as such the son of billionaire publisher Malcolm Forbes bought doctored cheap wine for $156,000 - the world record for a single bottle.
