Siân Heder, who directed the Best Picture-winning CODA, has signed on to helm an adaptation of Gabrielle Zevin’s Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow.
Per Deadline, Heder will direct a feature film adaptation of Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow for Paramount Pictures. Mark Bomback wrote the screenplay, based on a draft written by Zevin.
What is Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow about?
“On a bitter-cold day, in the December of his junior year at Harvard, Sam Masur exits a subway car and sees, amid the hordes of people waiting on the platform, Sadie Green,” the description of the book reads. “He calls her name. For a moment, she pretends she hasn’t heard him, but then, she turns, and a game begins: a legendary collaboration that will launch them to stardom. These friends, intimates since childhood, borrow money, beg favors, and, before even graduating college, they have created their first blockbuster, Ichigo. Overnight, the world is theirs. Not even twenty-five years old, Sam and Sadie are brilliant, successful, and rich, but these qualities won’t protect them from their own creative ambitions or the betrayals of their hearts.”
Published in 2022, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow spent over 50 weeks on the New York Times best-seller list. According to Deadline, the novel has sold over 2.8 million copies worldwide.
Casting information for the Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow movie has not yet been announced. A release date has not yet been set.
Along with 2021’s CODA, which won Best Picture at the 94th Academy Awards, Heder wrote 2016’s Men of a Certain Age and 2016’s Tallulah, the latter of which she also directed. She also wrote and directed an episode of Apple TV+’s Little America anthology series and numerous episodes of Orange Is the New Black.
