Emma Stone is set to star in a movie adaptation of ‘Love May Fail’.
The 27-year-old actress is reportedly set to assume the role of a conflicted heroine in the movie based on the book by author Matthew Quick, who penned the ‘Silver Linings Playbook’.
The plotline centres on a former housewife who is healing after going through a "demoralising" divorce, with the film adaptation being produced by Matt Tolmach and Elizabeth Cantillon, Variety reports.
Emma recently starred alongside Joaquin Phoenix in the Woody Allen-directed ‘Irrational Man’ and is working with the likes of Ryan Gosling and J. K. Simmons on the musical comedy-drama film ‘La La Land’.
And so busy is her schedule, Emma also declined the opportunity to star in the female-led ‘Ghostbusters’ reboot, although she admitted to being impressed by the script.
Emma said it was simply was too "big" a commitment for her to make.
She said: "The script was really funny. It just didn’t feel like the right time for me.
"A franchise is a big commitment – it’s a whole thing. I think maybe I need a minute before I dive back into that water."
