Disney is reportedly planning a gender-flipped television adaptation of Nick Hornby’s 1995 novel High Fidelity.
The series is expected to depart from the narrative of the book and film, but will maintain the romantic comedy and spirit of Hornby’s novel.

The book was made into a movie by Stephen Frears in 2000, with John Cusack as a record-store owner.
