Joan Didion’s essay Goodbye To All That is being developed into a feature film.
The film will be the first from Carlson Sullivan Pictures LLC, a new production company from producers Megan Carlson and Brian Sullivan.
Deadline.com has the scoop:
This is yet another Didion work to be optioned as her novel A Book of Common Prayer has also been picked up for a feature treatment by Campbell Scott. Carlson and Sullivan are currently focusing in on female writer/directors to bring the essay to the screen.
Didion is also starring in a new documentary about her life called We Tell Ourselves Stories In Order To Live. Didion’s nephew Griffin Dunne is currently working on the documentary with co-director Susanne Rostock.
