Nick Hornby will adapt Nina Stibbe's Love, Nina: A Nanny Writes Home as a five-part BBC1 drama series, the Independent reported. Love, Nina won the U.K.'s 2014 National Book Award for nonfiction.
Hornby said the book "has already attained the status of a modern classic, and I am so happy that I've been given the opportunity to adapt it. We want to make a series that is as charming, funny and delightful as Nina Stibbe's glorious book."

James Franco will star in Hulu's series based on Stephen King's novel 11/22/63. Entertainment Weekly reported that the project, a nine-hour event series produced by J.J. Abrams and writer-producer Bridget Carpenter, "is expected to fully cover the self-contained story in King's novel. What happens after that will likely depend on the project's performance, but the show presumably could be a franchise that includes additional seasons tackling different historic events."
