Belle Burden’s ‘Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage’ Lands at Netflix with Gwyneth Paltrow to Star

In one of the buzziest books of the year, Netflix has won a massive bidding war to nab the screen rights to Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage by Belle Burden.

But it’s not just the book deal, said to be in the seven figures, according to sources, that caused a stir. It’s the talent attached to it.

Gwyneth Paltrow, enjoying a career resurgence thanks to her work in the multi-Oscar-nominated Marty Supreme, is on board to star and executive produce the adaptation. Heidi Schreck, the playwright who wrote the Tony Award-nominated Broadway play What the Constitution Means to Me, is on board to pen the script.
