Amy Adams (Catch Me If You Can) is in negotiations to star opposite Meryl Streep and Philip Seymour Hoffman in "Doubt," John Patrick Shanley’s screen adaptation of his Pulitzer Prize-winning play. Adams will play the pivotal role of a young nun in the middle of a tense confrontation in which a Bronx Catholic school principal (Streep) accuses a priest (Hoffman) of pedophilia. Shanley is directing the 1964 period piece and adapting it from his play, which ran in off-Broadway and Broadway productions in New York from 2004-06. Production is tentatively set to begin in December 2007. Reply to this article |
