Anna Kendrick Directs Evelyn Hugo
Description
Anna Kendrick is directing Netflix’s highly anticipated adaptation of Taylor Jenkins Reid’s mega-bestselling novel The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, a bold move for the actress-turned-director following her acclaimed debut Woman of the Hour. The film, penned by Liz Tigelaar and Francesca Sloane, follows a young journalist uncovering the scandalous, glamorous, and deeply personal life of Hollywood icon Evelyn Hugo — who’s ready to reveal all seven of her marriages and the secrets behind her fame. With a global book sales record of over 24 million copies and a dream cast rumored to include Ana de Armas and Eiza González as Evelyn, and Jessica Chastain as rival Celia St. James, fans are buzzing. No release date yet, but Kendrick’s strong directorial debut and the novel’s massive popularity make this one of the most talked-about projects on the horizon.
