A Goodreads user asked Graeme Simsion:

Any news on the upcoming movie adaptation of "The Rosie Project"?

Graeme Simsion I’m only a couple of days ahead of the Hollywood gossip papers - and sometimes not that much. But I can clarify a couple of things that they usually get wrong:

1. It’s not an adaptation. I wrote the script before I re-wrote it as a novel.
2. Sony acquired the script.
3. Scott Neustadter and Michael Weber have done a rewrite.
I understand Jennifer Lawrence is attached and Richard Linklater interested. This is brilliant news (as was the news of Neustadter and Weber working on the script) but I know not to count my chickens until the cameras roll.

It's been announced that Jennifer Lawrence will be playing Rosie in the upcoming movie adaptation, but any inkling on who will be playing Don? Who would you hope to cast? I've ALWAYS imagined him as a Stephen Merchant type. What do you think?
