“When 12-year-old Sophie finally discovers where her secret telepathic ability comes from, she learns she’s actually not human but is from another world that exists side-by-side with ours,” the official plot-line reads.
Madison Ainley will serve as an executive producer. This is not the first time that Affleck is tackling a book adaptation. His previous directorial ventures, The Town, Argo and Live By Night, were all based on novels.
On the acting front, he will star in Deep Water, opposite Ana de Armas, and Ridley Scott’s The Last Duel, co-starring Matt Damon and Adam Driver. He will also reprise his role of Batman in the DC movie, The Flash.
