| Greg Berlanti - Genevieve |
Deadline announced yesterday that New York Times
best-selling YA novel “The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue” is being made
into a film for HBO Max, which launches in May 2020. The new film will be
produced by Greg Berlanti, who also produces “Riverdale,” “The Flash,” and “Supergirl.”
“The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue” is the first book
in a series titled “Montague Siblings” by Mackenzi Lee. The story follows bisexual
Henry “Monty” Montague in the 18th century who was born and raised
to become the perfect gentleman. However, Monty has other plans that don’t
involve following in his father’s footsteps. He embarks on a grand tour of
Europe, his last chance to be reckless before taking over his family’s estate. One
of Monty’s careless decisions turns the trip into a dangerous manhunt.
The movie may have Matthew Berry as its writer, according to
Deadline, who has written and produced two seasons of “Chilling Adventures of
Sabrina” on Netflix. The deal to produce this movie comes after Berlanti signed
a $300 million development and production deal with Warner Bros. last year.
