LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - "Living Out" playwright Lisa Loomer will rewrite Universal's Halle Berry (news) starrer "Nappily Ever After," which Patricia Cardoso will direct.
The story, based on Trisha Thomas' novel, follows a black woman's journey to self-discovery. On an impulse, the main character -- an advertising exec tired of fussing with her long and processed straight hair -- shaves it off and kicks out her commitment-phobic boyfriend. Discovering a newfound freedom, she is unprepared for how friends and co-workers react to her new hairdo and subsequent new life.

To those who've read the book----Do you really think it's worth bringing to the big screen? It was the one of the reading choices for my book club this summer and it didn't garner much of a reaction (neither positive nor negative) from the group.
