Fox 2000 has acquired the rights to the novel “The Engagement” and is in negotiations with Reese Witherspoon to come on board to produce.
If the deal goes through, Witherspoon would produce through her Pacific Standard banner along with her producing partner Bruna Papandrea.
Based on the Chloe Hooper novel, the story follows a woman working as an estate agent in Melbourne who begins a double life after she sleeps with the heir to a farming dynasty who confuses her for something that she is not.
