Targeted Diplomat Woman

Anne Hathway is getting married to a diplomat.

For TV, of course.

The Oscar winner has signed on to headline the adaptation of journalist-cum-author Jennifer Steils recently published novel, The Ambassadors Wife.

Inspired by Steils own experience, the novel centers on the kidnapping of an American woman in the Middle East. In real life, the author’s husband, a former U.K. ambassador to Yemen, Timothy Torlot, who, in 2010, was the target of a suicide bomber (she and their daughter were taken to Jordan for safekeeping until Torlot’s assignment came to an end).

The Hathaway-led TV adaptation has yet to land a network or streamer to air on, but, you know...it is happening.

Get that Emmy, too, girl!
