Emma Myers to lead film adaptation of A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder
The Wednesday-famed actress will play the role of Pip Fitz-Amobi, who sets out to investigate the murder of her schoolmate Andie Bell
Emma Meyers has been roped in to lead the upcoming adaptation of Holly Jackson’s A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder.
According to Deadline, the Wednesday-famed actress will play the role of Pip Fitz-Amobi, who sets out to investigate the murder of her schoolmate Andie Bell.
The BBC adaptation will be helmed by Dracula star Dolly Wells, while Red Rose’s Poppy Cogan is enlisted to write the screenplay alongside Ruby Thomas, Zia Ahmed, and Ajoke Ibironke.
"From the moment we announced that A Good Girl’s Guide To Murder was coming to the BBC I know there’s been a huge amount of speculation from fans about who will play Pip and Ravi," said Fiona Campbell, Controller of Youth Audience, BBC iPlayer and BBC Three.
"In Emma and Zain [Iqbal] we’ve found two actors who embody the characters so perfectly it will feel as though they’ve stepped straight from the pages of Holly’s books on to our screens. I can’t wait for BBC Three viewers to see them in action."
Florence Walker will produce the upcoming film, with Matthew Bouch, Frith Tiplady for Moonage Pictures, Matthew Read, Lucy Richer, and Danielle Scott-Haughton for the BBC set to executive produce.
