Drew Barrymore and Toni Collette Comedy ‘Miss You Already’ Sells to Lionsgate, Roadside

Catherine Hardwicke’s “Miss You Already,” starring Drew Barrymore and Toni Collette, is set to be acquired by Lionsgate and Roadside.

Described as a rom com, Morwenna Banks’ script finds two lifelong friends being pulled in different directions when one becomes pregnant and the other is diagnosed with breast cancer.

Hardwicke previously commented, “When I met Morwenna Banks and read her script, I really felt her passion for this story. This is something she lived through. She managed to take real life and turn it into a powerful, laugh- and cry-out-loud screenplay.”
