Miguel Arteta To Helm Adaptation Of Amanda Eyre Ward’s Bestseller ‘Sleep Toward Heaven’


Miguel Arteta has found his next film in 'Sleep Toward Heaven,' a feature adaptation of the bestselling novel by Amanda Eyre Ward.

Published in 2003, Sleep Toward Heaven tells the story of three disparate women, whose lives collide in the aftermath of a crime during a brutal Texas summer. Said Arteta, “Amanda’s novel feels as resonant and necessary as it did when it was first published – maybe even more so, as we long to find humanity and connection in a fractured world. I wanted to adapt the novel myself because I fell in love with these three unforgettable lead characters, who overcome tragedy through their unexpected friendship and profound glimmers of hope.”
