Peter Hutchings (The Hating Game) has been hired to adapt The Spanish Love Deception by Elena Armas for the big screen. Deadline reported that BCDF Pictures acquired film rights to the novel, which has been published in more than 25 languages. A sequel, The American Roommate Experiment, will be released in September. Claude Dal Farra and Brian Keady are producing for BCDF Pictures.
"I am thrilled to have BCDF Pictures working on the adaptation of The Spanish Love Deception and I have no doubt they will do an amazing job bringing Aaron and Catalina to life," said Armas. "Believe me when I say that I am obsessed with the script and Peter Hutchings's vision of these characters and Spanish setting I keep so close to my heart. The Spanish Love Deception readers are not ready for the Martín family!"
