George Clooney and Annette Bening are set to star in a film adaptation of Amy Bloom's memoir, In Love: A Memoir of Love and Loss. The project will be directed by Paul Weitz, who co-wrote the script with Bloom, Deadline reported, calling In Love "an illuminating, modern love story about two people who make an impossible decision together that honors their enduring commitment to each other."
"Amy's memoir is a contemporary fable of love, wit and existential stakes," Weitz said. "I can't wait to do it justice with this amazing cast."
"I have been so lucky to work with Eddie and Julie, so lucky to write with Paul and so grateful that this story of lasting love gets to be told on the screen, in Paul's gifted hands, by two of the greatest actors in America," Bloom said.
