Jean-Marc Vallée Goes "Wild"

Filmmaker Jean-Marc Vallée ("Dallas Buyers Club") will helm the film adaptation of Cheryl Strayed's memoir "Wild" says Deadline.


The story follows a woman (Reese Witherspoon) who falls into reckless and destructive behavior following her own divorce and the death of her mother. She makes a rash decision - to hike more than 1,000 miles of the Pacific Crest Trail, alone. In the process she reclaims her life.

Fellow author Nick Hornby is writing the adapted script.

Witherspoon, Bruna Papandrea and Bill Pohlad will produce the film.
