Amy Adams to star in TV adaptation of 'Sharp Objects'
Actress Amy Adams will star in "Sharp Objects", the TV adaptation of Gillian Flynn's similarly named novel.
Adams is also the film's executive producer, reports variety.com.
Jean-Marc Vallee has been roped in as the director.
The story of "Sharp Objects" follows a reporter (played by Adams) who has to cover the murder of two pre-teen girls in her hometown following a brief stint in a psychiatric hospital.
The project marks Adams' first starring role for the small screen, though before shooting up to super-stardom, the Golden Globe-winning and Oscar-nominated actress had small roles on "The Office", "Smallville" and "Buffy the Vampire Slayer".
