Miranda July’s Steamy Bestseller ‘All Fours’ Lands at Starz for Series Adaptation

variety.com:

Matt Minton mminton@variety.com Starz has acquired the rights to adapt Miranda July‘s steamy novel “All Fours” into a series.

The project is currently in development at the premium cabler. “All Fours” tells the story of a woman at a major turning point in her life as she undergoes a journey of sexual awakening.

The book’s official description reads: “‘All Fours’ tells the story of one woman’s quest for a new kind of freedom. Part absurd entertainment, part tender reinvention of the sexual, romantic, and domestic life of a forty-five-year-old female artist, ‘All Fours’ transcends expectation while excavating our beliefs about life lived as a woman.” “I’m thrilled that ‘All Fours’ has found a home at Starz,” July said in a statement. “I had an electric feeling from the moment we met; it was clear we were speaking the same language.

Rather than shying away from all the messy contradictions within sexuality and desire, Starz really digs into the reality of who women are and what we want, which makes it the perfect place to bring my novel to life.
