Witherspoon got her inspiration from the literary world for her next project, taking to social media  to announce the exciting collaboration. The two will star and executive produce a TV adaptation of the novel Little Fires Everywhere, written by Celeste Ng, published in 2017.

“Y’all! I’m so excited to tell you that @kerrywashington and I will be bringing #LittleFiresEverywhere to the screen together!” Witherspoon wrote alongside a photo of herself and Washington holding up copies of the book. “I love this beautiful book about motherhood and I can’t wait to finally collaborate with one of my favorite actresses.”

Thank you all for your well-wishes and your excitement! Twitter keeps seizing up on me — can’t think why — but I so appreciate all of it.”
