Princess debuts with full plate
August 08, 2008 The Tribeca-based production company is launching with four literary adaptations and an original romantic comedy. The slate includes a screen version of Carrie Karasyov and Jill Kargman's satirical novel "Wolves in Chic Clothing," in which three Park Avenue heiresses try to make over an outsider for sport, only to discover they've picked the wrong girl. -- Mike Gayle's No. 1 British best-seller "My Legendary Girlfriend" (adapted for the screen by Adam Kleid and Christine Scowley)
My Legendary Gilfriend is another spec sale for the scribes. Kleid is attached to direct the project and will also produce alongside Princess Pictures. The screenplay is based on the bestselling novel by author, Mike Gayle. The romantic comedy script centers around a guy that gets dumped by the love of his life on his birthday and has a severe case of post-breakup blues - the script is in the vain of a male "Bridget Jones". After falling in love with the book, Kleid and Scowley optioned the property, adapted it, and sold it. The Project is aiming to begin production in the near future.
