Here are some of the screen adaptations we’re most excited about this year.

The basis for Cord Jefferson’s hilarious film, American Fiction, starring Jeffrey Wright (and co-written by Jefferson and Percival Everett).

Coming soon to Showtime and starring Shailene Woodley, Betty Gilpin, DeWanda Wise, Gabrielle Creevy, and Blair Underwood, this book to series adaptation is one we anxiously await. Following three seemingly ordinary women, Lisa Taddeo’s reporting explores their desires, their relationships, and their lives in an intimate and affecting portrayal that reads like a novel and will keep readers riveted page after page. We’re excited to see how this talented cast will bring this book to life.
