Hulu picks up adaptation of Normal People author Sally Rooney's Conversations With Friends

Earlier this year, Hulu landed itself a respectably successful (and extremely Irish) adaptation of author Sally Rooney’s Normal People starring Daisy Edgar-Jones and Paul Mescal, and now—rather than suffer the indignity of letting some other platform get the next Sally Rooney adaptation, Hulu has also picked up the TV version of her 2017 novel Conversations With Friends. This comes from Variety, which says this comes from the same creative team as Normal People, with Lenny Abrahamson directing and Alice Birch writing, plus Element Pictures and the BBC producing.
