WB found new Nancy Drew

Image For the role of Beverly Marsh in the film adaptation of "It" Sophia Lillis has earned a lot of rave reviews in her address, and now the young actress is ready to try on the image of another famous literary character. According to the Deadline website, Lillis will play detective girl Nancy Drew in the film Nancy Drew and the Hidden Staircase ("Nancy Drew and the Hidden Staircase" *), which is a Warner Bros. studio.

According to the source, the major plans to start filming the project as soon as possible, although the tape has no director or scriptwriter yet. But the name of one of the producers is known - TV presenter Ellen DeGeneres will be among them.

Nancy Drew is considered the creation of Edward Stratemeyer, who saw in the heroine the female counterpart of the Hardy brothers created by him. For the first time, a 16-year-old girl who successfully investigated crimes appeared in print in 1930. Subsequently, stories about Nancy were written by various authors under the pseudonym Caroline Keane. The WB film will be based on the second published book, in which Nancy Drew dealt with the case of missing items from an old mansion.

Nancy Drew has made a huge impact on culture and has appeared on screens large and small. So, all the same book "The Mystery of the Mysterious Staircase" formed the basis of the 1939 film with Bonita Granville, who played Nancy in a total of four films. In the late 70s, the ABC channel aired the series "The Brothers Hardy and Nancy Drew", and already the modern generation met a girl detective thanks to the tape starring Emma Roberts and computer games from Her Interactive. In recent years, producers have tried twice to launch a show about Nancy, but both projects have failed to impress TV bosses.
