Azazel Jacobs is on Instagram and he follows A24 but the only other company he looks like he started following more recently are BRON Studios which are a pretty big production company. Would be good if they were involved in this. Probably wishful thinking though. BRON produced Leave No Trace, Chris Stinson was also a producer on that film, and Stinson produced The Lovers and Terri for Jacobs.

Leave No Trace got a small bit of awards traction...not hadn’t to have that guy on as producer

I'd never even heard of this before this was announced.

I am waiting until the project is officially announced and in preproduction before I read the book. But, the book sounds pretty interesting that I do want to read it first

Really hope this doesn't end up another Man Under and Whatever Makes You Happy where it's announced and then months pass by without us ever hearing about it again.

I see this as different than Man Under that news seemed like it was put out there just to make it seem like she was in demand her agent does that sometimes with Jen Aniston
This one feels different, she spoke about it and another site was able to get some information about the money side of it so to me it just sounds more like it will happen

Wow, great cast. But Letts is voicing the cat?? The cat will speak? or voiceover? That could be...interesting. Still very exciting.

There's no way this is not getting picked up by a decent distributor.

Rocket Science seem a good company and Thorsten Schumacher was an Exec Producer on Carol, Brooklyn and Destroyer to name a few.

Omg I’m in love with Lucas Hedges in every way imaginable, this is perfect!! And yea, I like Letts as well. He was in The Lovers so I guess it makes sense Jacobs would wanna collaborate with him again.
Glad for Wild Bunch’s participation in this, even if it’s just international. They typically get behind some pretty awesome films. This is definitely getting closer to becoming a reality!!

I wonder how much of the story the writer changed for the script, if any at all. Reading more about this, it's interesting that the time period this story is set in is not really stated. Some people who read the book said early 2000's, maybe 90's, another guessed the 60's. This will be very interesting. It does not sound like awards friendly material to me and that's okay. I just want it to be good.

Depends how the film is received and who gets behind it but if Michelle knocks it out the park could be her breakthrough or I hope so anyway. Maybe Kevin Huvane is trying to find Michelle her Oscar film. Even a Golden Globe nomination in Comedy Actress would be brilliant. Throwback to when Lucas mentioned Michelle and them both learning to act in front of the world. www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6dv9evojh0 - 14:15 mark

Haven't read the book and don't intend to. I'm always disappointed when I see a film adaptation of a book I like. But I am very happy it appears to be happening soon.
Surrealistic comedy - not easy to pull off - but her character sounds fascinating, the story sounds interesting, Hedges is talented, Letts is no fool and - best of all - Michelle is the lead!
Hoping this will be more on edgy side, less on the whimsy with many wonderful moments for her to play.

Hoping this will be more on edgy side, less on the whimsy with many wonderful moments for her to play. I’m the opposite. I can’t wait to get my hands on this book mainly cuz everyone I’ve asked about this writer has told me that he’s amazing and so funny. If the film isn’t a literal translation, I’ll be ok. It’s typically more fun for me when things are changed, given how stories play out differently on different mediums. Plus straight adaptations feel like deja vu to me; like, “I’ve seen this already.” That’s probably why I like Stardust so much, cuz of the differences it feels like an alternate version in a “parallel lives” kinda way...but we’ll see! The fact that the author is the screenwriter makes me happy tho Tone-wise, some whimsy would be nice, but I’m hoping more for some magical realism and absurdist comedy with moments of revelation and slight catharsis. Is that a lot to ask?? 😂

That was fast - also - still so very odd to see Michelle confirm projects herself on social media - never thought I would see the day

Film is listed as in development on her imdb page. At least it's listed, even if it's in that status. That, plus Michelle's post makes me happy and hopeful!

Oh exciting. Maybe now it's all confirmed it won't be filming the end of summer anymore. Maybe they're all ready to shoot.

Debra Winger actually left a nice comment on his repost. I'm kind of in shock, Lol. She has said so many nasty things about Pfeiffer.
