It hasn’t been confirmed yet, but negotiations are in process for John Krasinski to star alongside Ginnifer Goodwin in Emily Giffin’s “Something Borrowed.” Krasinski would play the role of Ethan, Goodwin’s friend and confident, and is also reported to sign a two movie deal, also set to star in the sequel “Something Blue.” What do you think of the choice?
Actress Ginnifer Goodwin has signed on to play Rachel in Emily Giffin’s novel turned film Something Borrowed. Goodwin, who starred in last year’s hit He’s Just Not That Into You, will be playing the “good girl” in the film, who unexpectedly starts an affair with her best friend’s fiancé. Author Emily Giffin seemed pleased about the choice, her Facebook page read, “I am thrilled to announce that GINNIFER GOODWIN will be playing Rachel in SOMETHING BORROWED!!! I think she is a fabulous actress and perfect for the role (so much how I imagined Rachel when writing the book). Hope you all agree!”
Do you agree? And who do you want to fill the roles of other main characters- Darcy and Dex?
Emily Giffin’s novel Something Borrowed is getting closer to production! Luke Greenfield has signed on as director of the romance novel that will be coming to a theater near you. Greenfield has produced big name films such as “The Girl Next Door” and “Role Model’s” and will be joined by Wild Ocean Film’s Aaron Lubin and Pamela Schein as producers. Alcon Entertainment will produce the film (which will keep the novel’s title of Something Borrowed) and will bring along big names such as Andrew Kosove, Broderick Johnson, Molly Smith, and Hilary Swank. Jennie Urman penned the screenplay.
As it seems with Giffin’s novels, just when you think you have the plot figured out, it spins in another direction. Love the One You’re With is no different, keeping readers on their toes with compelling drama, heart-stopping moments, and suspense that keeps the story line moving at a fast pace. I found this novel to be fresh and relatable, and really causing me to think about my life and goals, and I love when my readings can have that effect on me.
