Adding to her lengthy list of projects she has in development as a producer, Reese Witherspoon has targeted Ruth Ware’s mystery novel In A Dark, Dark Wood as a likely movie.
New Line has nabbed the rights to the film, which Witherspoon will produce with business partner Bruna Papandrea under their Pacific Standard company. Already a bestseller, Ware’s book follows reclusive crime writer Leonora, who is usually found working away in her apartment. She’s persuaded to leave the comfortable climes of her home by an invite to a hen night party in an eerie glass house deep in the countryside from a school friend she hasn’t seen in years. But when she wakes up 48 hours later injured but alive in a hospital bed, there is a mystery more puzzling than even the stories she writes to be solved. And more worryingly for her, she’s at the centre of it.
The next step will be to find a writer to adapt the script and decide whether she’ll star or stay as producer. Among the other projects she has on the go are supernatural thriller Cold, Ashley’s War, All Is Not Forgotten, Pale Blue Dot and a live-action take on Peter Pan character Tinkerbell in Tink.
