Dreamworks has picked up Mystic River and Gone, Baby, Gone novelist Dennis Lehane’s latest after a heated bidding war. The psychological thriller looks to be the next in Lehane’s long-list of big screen adaptations.
Adaptation of the upcoming novel from Mystic River author Dennis Lehane, who will also write the screenplay. DreamWorks acquired the rights after a heated bidding war with several studios. It is described as a Hitchcockian thriller set in Boston.
Gone Girl-like psychological thriller alternately unreliably narrated by a paranoiac and slightly agoraphobic woman and her con artist husband who is being hunted by some very bad guys over a botched venture capital swindle.
