Kristin Scott Thomas and Michelle Williams will star in the adaptation of Suite Française; Bola Agbaje’s play Gone Too Far is turned into a film.
Irene Nemirovsky’s acclaimed novel Suite Française will be adapted for the big screen by Saul Dibb [pictured] and already has Kristin Scott Thomas and Michelle Williams attached. Dibb will also direct this drama about the tense love-affair between a young French woman (played by Williams) and the German officer assigned to supervise her in Nazi-occupied France. The film is a joint co-production between Alliance Films and Qwerty Films and has TF1 on board as a sales agent. Shooting is planned for sometime early next year.
