According to Variety, the studio has hired (500) Days of Summer screenwriters Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber to write the adaptation.

Published last year, "Beginner's Greek" centers on an investment banker who meets his soul mate on a plane, loses her phone number and discovers later that his best friend has married the woman.
