Fiction and non-fiction books have inspired many films over the years. From blockbuster Harry Potter series to comedies like The Princess Diaries, books often bring both bibliophiles and cinema-lovers together. If you are one of them, then the year 2022 will bring you some exciting screen adaptations of interesting literature.
Let’s take a look at some of them:
chat with friends
Sally Rooney’s debut novel Conversations with Friends will also be getting its own series, following the critically acclaimed screen adaptation of her 2018 book Normal People. Oscar-nominated director Lenny Abrahamson will once again collaborate with an Irish writer to bring the modern romance to the screen. The 12-episode series will star debutant Alison Oliver alongside Sasha Lane, Joe Alwyn and Jemima Kirke and is set to premiere in the spring.
Eileen
American author Otesa Moshfeg’s debut novel Eileen, which came out in 2015, will also be adapted for the screen by screenwriter Erin Cressida Wilson. The crime-thriller, set in the early 1960s, centers on a 20-something woman working in a boys’ prison outside Boston who is drawn into a very strange crime. The film stars Anne Hathaway and Thomasin McKenzie in the lead roles.
Incentive
British author Jane Austen’s last completed novel will once again be turned into a movie and this time, Dakota Johnson will play Anne Elliot. The story revolves around 27-year-old unmarried protagonist Elliot who reconnects with Captain Frederick Wentworth, a charming and now-wealthy naval officer whose marriage proposal he had turned down eight years earlier. The film will release on Netflix.
White noise
Academy Award-nominated director Noah Baumbach will reunite with his frequent collaborator Greta Gerwig, who is also his partner, and Adam Driver, who will star in the lead roles in this adaptation of Don DeLillo’s 1985 postmodern classic. The Netflix special will tell the story of Jack Gladney, his fourth wife, Babette, and their four children, as they find themselves in the middle of an environmental disaster in a small Midwestern town.
stars in the afternoon
A24 Productions will bring to the screen the Dennis Johnson novel which is set against the backdrop of the Nicaraguan Revolution in 1984. The story follows an English oil businessman and American journalist-prostitute who are romantically linked. The film stars Joe Alvin and Margaret Qualley in the lead roles.
