According to Deadline.com
in a whopping summer auction that reached seven figures, 20th Century Fox acquired Gone Girl the recently
published Gillian Flynn novel. The book will be produced by Pacific
Standard’s Reese Witherspoon with the screenplay being written by Flynn
herself. Reese Witherspoon is to direct the film.
Gone Girl follows a traumatic relationship and a
disappearance. After years of fighting, cheating and being combative, a woman
goes missing in a small town, and the police look to her husband to find the
answers. He denies any involvement, but after his mistakes come to light,
authorities find it difficult to believe him. The novel, which has been getting
great reviews, is written in the first person, alternating between man and
wife; so, it’ll be interesting to see what form the adaptation takes.
