Hollywood veterans George Clooney and Annette Bening are set to come together for Alzheimer’s drama "In Love". The upcoming film is based on author Amy Bloom's bestselling memoir of the same name.
It will be directed by Oscar nominee Paul Weitz, who co-wrote the script with Bloom.
Bloom's memoir, titled "In Love: A Memoir of Love and Loss", is described as an illuminating, modern love story about two people who make an impossible decision together that honours their enduring commitment to each other.
In the US, "In Love" was named Time magazine’s No. 1 non-fiction book of 2022 and included on its list of 100 must-read books.
Eddie Vaisman and Julia Lebedev (Rental Family, Bad Education) developed the project and will produce under their banner, Sight Unseen.
