In the Wake of the Titanic

Anne Hathaway wants to tell a tall tale about the sinking of the Titanic.

The Oscar winner is looking to star in the adaptation of The Lifeboat, a novel by Carlotte Rogan about a woman – a newlywed and a widow – who survived the infamous transatlantic’s tragedy only to face charges of murder in 1914 due to the deaths on the lifeboat she shared with 38 people.

Uh...talk about not catching a break.

Hathaway would also produce the project, which is still look for a director.
