- Keep ‘em coming, New Line. The duo that brought, or will bring I should say, the film adaptation of “He’s Not That Into You” will next up bring Liz Tuccillo’s (who co-authored “Into You”) best-selling novel “How to Be Single” to the big screen. Flower Films‘ Nancy Juvonen and Drew Barrymore to produce, setting Marc Silverstein and Abby Kohn to adapt. The book was barely released in June, but “with the strong boxoffice performance of “Sex and the City” earlier this year and “Into You” to be released by New Line/Warners Feb. 6, 2009, New Line is hoping to keep it’s female-skewing rom-com streak going with “Single.” Factoid: Tucillo created “Related” for the WB, and was a former “Sex and the City” writer.
