Variety is reporting that Warner Bros. has just optioned the Alice Munro short story “Hateship, Friendship, Courtship, Loveship, Marriage” with an eye on Julianne Moore to star.
The story will be adapted into a script by Mark Poirier who recently adapted Douglas Coupland’s novel “All Families Are Psychotic” for DreamWorks. The story centers on a nanny hired to care for a teenage girl whose mother has just died. Complications arise when the nanny falls in love with the teen’s ailing father.
