'Stranger Things' star Sadie Sink is set for her next TV series, but this time it's not a supernatural one. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the actor will star in and executive produce a limited series based on Jeffrey Eugenides' novel 'The Marriage Plot' at FX. Will Arbery will adapt the novel, while Hiro Murai, known for 'Atlanta' and 'Widow's Bay', is set to direct the show.
Official Logline and Novel Background
The official logline states: 'The Marriage Plot follows three recent college graduates caught in an all-consuming love triangle as they reconcile their youthful romantic aspirations with looming adulthood and make life-altering choices about love and identity.' The original novel was published in 2011 and landed on several best-of lists that year.
Executive Producers and Production Details
Gina Balian, president of FX Entertainment, described the project as 'ambitious, character-driven storytelling.' She added: 'The Marriage Plot is a perfect fit for FX: ambitious, character-driven storytelling that offers another great opportunity to partner with exceptional artists. We look forward to building on our partnerships with Will and Hiro, both of whom are extraordinary talents with whom we are proud to work again.'
Arbery and Murai, along with Steven Prinz and Rachel Jacobs for Borderless Pictures, will executive produce, followed by Michael Costigan and Jason Bateman for Aggregate Films, Eugenides, Sink, and Carver Karaszewski and Claudia Shin for Chum Films. Yigi Huang serves as the producer for the project.
Sink's Upcoming Projects
Sadie Sink, who rose to prominence with Netflix's megahit 'Stranger Things', will next be seen in 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day', which is due to hit theatres on July 31.
