American author Abbi Glines is showing a lot of faith in neophyte Australian producer/writer Gary O.Toole.
Glines has just sold an option on her novel While It Lasts to O.Toole, who recently launched production banner Red Rock Pictures after splitting with his producing partner at Three Kings Pictures.
O.Toole was alerted to the novel in 2013 by young Aussie actor Addam Bramich, who was keen to get the rights as he saw the project as a potential starring vehicle for himself.
At the time the novel was in The New York Times young adult best-seller list behind The Fault in our Stars, The Perks of Being a Wallflower and Divergent. The producer initiated negotiations with the Alabama-based author and her New York agent and clinched the deal overnight.
