A small rumor for your viewing pleasure today.  Deadline is reporting that Warner Bros. is in talks to make a film based on Emma Forrest’s script, which she based on her memoir.   The film will be called Your Voice in My Head and the book’s synopsis is as follows:

Emma Forrest, a British journalist, was just twenty-two and living the fast life in New York City when she realized that her quirks had gone beyond eccentricity. In a cycle of loneliness, damaging relationships, and destructive behavior, she found herself in the chair of a slim, balding, and effortlessly optimistic psychiatrist—a man whose wisdom and humanity would wrench her from the dangerous tide after she tried to end her life. She was on the brink of drowning, but she was still working, still exploring, still writing, and she had also fallen deeply in love. One day, when Emma called to make an appointment with her psychiatrist, she found no one there. He had died, shockingly, at the age of fifty-three, leaving behind a young family. Reeling from the premature death of a man who had become her anchor after she turned up on his doorstep, she was adrift. And when her all-consuming romantic relationship also fell apart, Emma was forced to cling to the page for survival and regain her footing on her own terms.

A modern-day fairy tale, Your Voice in My Head is a stunning memoir, clear-eyed and shot through with wit. In her unique voice, Emma Forrest explores the highs and lows of love and the heartbreak of loss.

If the film is made, Harry Potter director David Yates is set to be the director of the film and he has made it known that he wants Emma Watson to star in it.  Emma would be playing the role of a young woman who attempts suicide before being saved by a New York-based psychiatrist who’s dying of cancer.  Tom Hanks, George Clooney and other high profile actors are possibilities for the male lead in the film.
