Hot off the heels of purchasing the prehistoric epic Neanderthal via their AGBO production company, Joe and Anthony Russo have jumped into an exclusive negotiation for the recently published novel Cherry by first-time author Nico Walker, per Deadline.
Cherry was picked up by Knopf’s Tim O’Connell and debuted No. 14 on the The New York Times Bestseller list.
The directing duo are currently hard at work at the yet untitled follow up due in theaters next summer.
Not only that, but the Russos are apparently eyeing the adaption as a vehicle for them to direct.
