Laura Dave is teaming with her husband, screenwriter Josh Singer (Maestro), to adapt her forthcoming novel The Night We Lost Him into a film for Netflix. Deadline reported that they come to the project following their collaboration on The Last Thing He Told Me, Apple TV+'s limited series adaptation of Dave's earlier novel, which they co-developed and executive produced.
Set to be released October 1 by Simon & Schuster/Marysue Rucci Books, The Night We Lost Him "watches as the patriarch of a famed hotel empire dies under suspicious circumstances. Thereafter, his daughter and her estranged brother join forces to find out what happened, unraveling a larger mystery about who their father really was," Deadline noted.
