Amazon Studios and Welle Entertainment have made a deal to develop the Robinne Lee novel The Idea Of You into a feature film, with Oscar-winner Anne Hathaway set to star. Tony-nominated actress and filmmaker Jennifer Westfeldt is adapting the screenplay based on the bestseller. Cathy Schulman is producing through her Welle Entertainment shingle along with Gabrielle Union and her production shingle I’ll Have Another.

“The Idea of You centers on Sophie, a 40-year-old divorced mother. Sophie’s husband Dan left her for a younger woman, and now he has cancelled his Coachella trip with their 15-year old daughter. Sophie picks up the pieces and braves the crowds and desert heat. There, she meets 24 year-old Hayes Campbell, the lead singer of the hottest boy band on the planet, August Moon.”

The novel was published in 2017, and caught a second wave of popularity during the pandemic. This sounds like an interesting story, and Hathaway should fit into the role pretty well.
