Maggie Gyllenhaal is set to work again with Warner Bros. on a new film adaptation following her recent project “The Bride.” Multiple outlets report that the studio is developing an adaptation of Rachel Kushner’s novel “Creation Lake” for Gyllenhaal. The Hollywood Reporter states that Warner Bros. has optioned the book for Gyllenhaal, while Variety adds that the studio has acquired the novel with plans for her to develop the project and potentially both produce and direct it. The reporting also notes that the effort has been in circulation for some time, with Variety indicating that an earlier report by Puck first surfaced details of the development.
As of now, specific casting, production timelines, and release plans are not detailed in the available reports. The information centers on the studio’s decision to secure the rights to Kushner’s novel and the attachment of Gyllenhaal to shape the adaptation as part of her continued collaboration with Warner Bros.
