Roth/Kirschenbaum Films has acquired rights to Lisa Grunwald's upcoming novel Time After Time, and Lauren Oliver (Before I Fall) "will script it as a starring vehicle for Glen Powell, who played John Glenn in Hidden Figures," Deadline reported. Joe Roth and Jeff Kirschenbaum will produce. Random House publishes the novel next month.
"Joe and I have been looking for an epic romance to produce, and we believe we've found it with Time After Time," said Kirschenbaum. "It's part The Notebook, part Ghost and it has all the makings of a classic."
