Richard Linklater to Direct Where’d You Go Bernadette?

The story–which is revealed in the book through emails, letters, F.B.I. documents, correspondence with a psychiatrist and a bill for an emergency room visit–revolves around agoraphobic architect and mother Bernadette Branch who goes missing prior to a family trip to Antarctica. Bernadette’s 15-year-old daughter Bee narrates the book.

The Fault in Our Stars screenwriters Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber penned the adaptation for Annapurna Pictures’ Megan Ellison, who produces alongside Color Force’s Nina Jacobson and Brad Simpson (The Hunger Games).

Linklater is currently wrapping post-production on another film for Annapurna, his ’80s-set college comedy That’s What I’m Talking About, which stars Blake Jenner, Tyler Hoechlin and Wyatt Russell.
