Jennifer Lawrence, Steven Spielberg Teaming Up to Adapt War Photographer's Memoir
It has been announced that Academy Award winner Jennifer Lawrence and three-time Academy Award winning director Steven Spielberg will be teaming up to adapt Lynsey Addario's memoir, It's What I Do: A Photographer's Life of Love and War, whose movie rights were just picked up by Warner Bros. The film will be produced by Andrew Lazar. Addario is a war photographer who spent her time in war zones ranging from Afghanistan to the Congo to Somalia. She is also known as the one of the few females in a predominantly male club and was also kidnapped at one point.
I got to say that I love this idea! Steven Spielberg is one of the best directors and he might be the director that got me into loving movies the way I do. Jennifer Lawrence has been on fire for the last few years, she's a three-time Oscar nominee and she won the Best Actress award in 2013 for her incredible performance in Silver Linings Playbook. She's also having an incredible career in the blockbuster world with her being in The Hunger Games and X-Men films. She's currently filming Joy (releasing on December 25th), her third collaboration with David O. Russell, which is exciting. I think her and Spielberg are a perfect duo and I'm looking forward to this!
