Tema: Natalie Portman dirigirá y protagonizará una película sobre las hermanas Friedman

Según Collider, Natalie Portman estaría en conversaciones avanzadas para dirigir una película sobre “Dear Abby” y “Ann Landers”, dos famosas columnistas americanas, hermanas gemelas, que mantuvieron una rivalidad durante gran parte de su vida. Según el artículo, además de dirigir, Portman interpretaría los dos roles:

Born in Iowa in 1918, Eppie (Esther) and Popo (Pauline), as they were nicknamed, were very close growing up, working together at Morningside College’s school newspaper and participating in a double marriage ceremony on their 21st birthday. However, once Eppie accepted a position as the “Ann Landers” advice columnist at the Chicago Sun-Times, Pauline decided to start her own column, which she called Dear Abby. This created a bitter sibling rivalry, and while the two eventually reconciled in 1964, their rift continued for decades, until Eppie passed away in 2002. Eppie and Pauline’s contentious relationship even trickled down to their two daughters, who continued the family feud going forward. Eppie and Pauline’s husbands and editors will serve as key supporting characters in the film, which does not have a start date at this time.

Katie Robbins (The Affair) ha escrito el guión, y el film será producido por Peter Saraf y Dani Melia, de Big Beach Films, la compañía detrás de éxitos indie como “Little Miss Sunshine” y “Safety Not Guaranteed”
