Kanner is repped by Paradigm and Thrive Entertainment. The adaptation of Kinsella’s Can you Keep a Secret? novel has launched on Netflix. Kinsella’s novel Confessions of a Shopaholic was produced by Jerry Bruckheimer for Walt Disney and grossed over $100 million worldwide. She and Kanner previously worked together on the Lionsgate release For the Love of Money, with Kanner directing and Mattison serving as writer and producer. She is currently developing a James Patterson novel into a TV series as an executive producer and writer.

Mattison wrote and directed The Sound, a psychological horror film set in an infamous haunted subway station in Toronto. “The characters are all immensely flawed and borderline narcissistic, which adds a new flavor in a marketplace that’s bringing back the genre,” Mattison said in her statement.

Production on the Remember Me? movie adaptation is set to take place in Vancouver later this year. Kanner was a veteran casting director of TV series like Friends and Sex and the City before directing the crazylove comedy and then a host of TV episodes and the web series Dropping The Soap, which starred Jane Lynch. “The opportunity to take a story like this and use an engaging style like Flea Bag, mix that with the distinctive Kinsella humor and then add the bite and snappy dialogue from Jenna was a no-brainer,” Kanner said in a statement.
