As a movie buff with decades of cinematic history under my belt, I must say that Sally Field‘s involvement in “Remarkably Bright Creatures” is nothing short of exhilarating! From her Oscar-winning performances in “Norma Rae” and “Places in the Heart” to her memorable roles in “Mrs. Doubtfire,” “Forrest Gump,” and “Steel Magnolia,” Field has always been a powerhouse on screen.
Sally Field may be set to play the lead role in the movie version of “Remarkably Bright Creatures,” a book written by Shelby Van Pelt.
Netflix has taken on a project currently in its initial phases. The upcoming film will be directed by Olivia Newman, known for her success last summer with “Where the Crawdads Sing,” and she’ll be collaborating with John Whittington on the screenplay. John is recognized for his work on “Sonic the Hedgehog 2” and “The Lego Batman Movie.”
Netflix declined to comment.
“Seth Van Pelt’s first book, titled ‘Remarkably Bright Creatures’, was published in 2022 and skyrocketed to best-seller status in 2023. The narrative focuses on an unusual bond that forms between a solitary widow and a colossal octopus named Marcellus. Following the death of her husband, Tova Sullivan takes up a job as a night janitor at a local aquarium. It is during her work hours that she strikes up a friendship with this eight-tentacled creature, who aids Tova in uncovering the mystery surrounding her son’s disappearance at sea 30 years prior.”
80-year-old actress, who won two Oscars for “Norma Rae” and “Places in the Heart,” recently appeared in the octogenarian comedy “80 for Brady.” This film revolves around best friends whose fervor for Tom Brady leads them to the Super Bowl. Among her numerous film roles are “Mrs. Doubtfire,” “Forrest Gump,” “Steel Magnolia,” “Smokey and the Bandit,” and “Lincoln.”
David Levine from Anonymous Content is overseeing the production of “Remarkably Bright Creatures,” a project also involving Bryan Unkeless, known for “I, Tonya,” and Peter Craig, son of Field, who has worked on films like “Top Gun: Maverick” and “The Batman.” The executive producers include Tony Lipp and Alyssa Rodrigues from Anonymous Content as well.
The Hollywood Reporter broke the news about the film adaptation.
