According to Variety, “the novel tells the story of DCI Jack Harper and BBC newsreader Anna Andrews, whose paths cross for the first time following their divorce when a woman is found murdered in their hometown. Anna is reluctant to cover the case and Jack becomes suspicious of her involvement, until he becomes a suspect in his own murder investigation.”

She says on Variety “the last three years have been such a wonderful whirlwind and I’m still pinching myself.” She is “so thrilled to be working with Jessie Chastain, Kristen Campo, and the team at Endeavor Content. I love what they have planned for His and Hers, and I can’t wait to see Anna Andrews and Jack Harper brought to life on the screen.”

Though no network or streaming service is currently attached to the series in progress, Variety confirms that Chastain and Kelly Carmichael (The Nanny Diaries, Nine) will executive produce on behalf of Freckle Films, along with Campo.
