’…what's your favorite color, your favorite ice cream flavor, and your favorite season?’ ‘Blue, coffee, and winter.’ ‘Winter. No one likes winter.’ ‘It gets dark early, I like that.’ ‘Why?’ Because that means the day has ended. I like checking days off a calendar—151 days crossed and nothing truly horrible has happened. 152 and the world isn't ruined. 153 and I haven't destroyed anyone. 154 and no one really hates me. Sometimes I think I won't ever feel safe until I can count my last days on one hand. Three more days to get through until I don't have to worry about life anymore.
Gillian Flynn, Sharp Objects
EXCLUSIVE: In a very competitive situation, Sharp Objects, the high-profile drama series project starring Amy Adams that was taken out by Entertainment One and Blumhouse in February, has landed at …
“Noxon wrote the pilot script based on the book and will serve as showrunner and writer. Flynn is set to write multiple episodes. Vallée will direct all episodes, just as he did on HBO’s upcoming limited series Big Little Lies starring Nicole Kidman and Reese Witherspoon. He also will co-edit Sharp Objects.”
UPDATE on the Sharp Objects show (Gillian interview)
Your book Sharp Objects is being adapted for television. What's the status of the project? GF: It's in the very early stages right now. We're hoping to package it to shop around as a limited series early next year and to film next fall. That's our hope. Marti Noxon, who did Buffy the Vampire Slayer and my favorite show of the summer UnREAL, which I'm completely obsessed with—she wrote the first script.
Gone Girl and Dark Places became movies. Why was TV a better fit for Sharp Objects? GF: Part of it was just that such great work is being done on TV right now, and the idea that a novel matches TV. You can spread out and take your time the same way you do with a novel—you don't have to be as precise and concise as you do with a film. Sharp Objects was my first book, and I was afraid that doing it as a film and pushing it all together in two hours would turn it into a horror film instead of a psychological thriller. The story is as much about who this narrator is and what has happened to her as it is a whodunit.
