Gillian Flynn's Dark Places novel adaptation could land Prometheus star Charlize Theron, a project which once had Amy Adams on board. Deadline reports that the story tells of a seven year-old girl who survived the murder of her family and testified against her brother as being the murdered. 25 years later, a secret crime solving society will force her to confront the truth of the events that took place that day. Apparently Theron's not locked into the Gilles Paquet-Brenner-directed film as yet, despite interest and the deal would have her in a producing capacity as well via her Denver & Delilah company alongside Beth Kono, and Hugo Productions' Stéphane Marsil.

HollywoodNews.com: It was announced today that The Weinstein Company preemptively bought all U.S. rights to “Sarah’s Key” starring Kristin Scott Thomas and based on the New York Times best-selling novel by Tatiana De Rosnay. Directed by Gilles Paquet-Brenner, “Sarah’s Key” starts in Paris, 1942, where ten-year old Sarah is taken with her parents by the French police as they go door-to-door arresting Jewish families as part of the Vel’d-Hiv Roundup. Desperate to protect her younger brother, Sarah locks him in a bedroom cupboard – their secret hiding place – and promises to come back for him, but she and her parents are dragged from their home forever. Sixty-seven years later Sarah?s story intertwines with that of Julia Jarmond (Kristen Scott Thomas), an American journalist investigating the roundup. In her research, Julia stumbles onto a trail of secrets that link her to Sarah, and to questions about her own future.
