Will Gluck's Olive Bridge and Sony Pictures are developing a film adaptation of Lynn Painter's bestselling book, Fake Skating. Deadline called the novel "a heartfelt and banter-filled rom-com about childhood sweethearts whose icy reunion in their hockey-loving hometown unexpectedly thaws when they fake a romantic relationship."
Gluck, Jacqueline Monetta, and Madison Jones are producing on behalf of Olive Bridge. Lynn Painter is an executive producer. Gluck most recently directed and produced the hit movie Anyone But You, starring Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell. He also helmed Friends With Benefits, starring Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis, and Easy A, starring Emma Stone. His upcoming film One Night Only, featuring Monica Barbaro and Callum Turner, will be released in August.
