Working Title (Last Night in Soho) has optioned rights to best-selling author Ruth Ware’s haunted house thriller The Turn of the Key, Deadline reports out of the virtual Cannes market.
“The Turn of the Key tells the story of a young woman who stumbles across an ad to take on a position as a live-in nanny at a high-tech ‘smart’ house in the Scottish Highlands.”
“In spite of the extremely generous salary, a beautiful location, an incredible home and the seemingly picture-perfect family, it soon becomes clear that all is not what it seems.”
Spiral: From the Book of Saw star Max Minghella and Jamie Bell (Rocketman, Fantastic Four) have signed on to write the screen adaptation of Ware’s successful fifth novel, adds the site.
Notes the site: “The Social Network star Minghella made his screenwriting debut on the Miramax thriller The 9th Life of Louis Drax, directed by Alexandre Aja, which he also produced via his company Blank Tape.”
