Variety reports that Amy Adams will star in the indie drama "Daughter of the Queen of Sheba" for producers Susan Cartsonis and Matt Williams (What Women Want).The script, written by Karen Croner based on the bio of NPR correspondent Jacki Lyden, centers on how a woman uses her mother's madness and delusions to empower herself.
Lyden was NPR's first correspondent on the air in the aftermath of 9/11 and went to Afghanistan soon after the Taliban fell. She's working on a book about the secret lives of a small group of Iraqi friends and reported on the slaying of her translator by an American soldier.

Just when we start to think Amy Adams is taking a break from acting (after all, there's a wedding coming up!), we hear about a new project. This one is not yet set in stone but negotiations are close to a deal says The Hollywood Reporter.Amy is in talks with Spyglass Entertainment to star in "Leap Year", a romantic comedy about an uptight woman who travels to Dublin to propose to her boyfriend on leap day, February 29th.
Harry Elfont and Deb Kaplan ("Made of Honor") wrote the screenplay, though no director is on board. Shooting begins mid-February.
I'm so excited to hear that Amy is going to star in a new romantic comedy. I think she's great in this genre. Who would you want to be her male co-star in "Leap Year"? I'm voting James McAvoy or Darren LeGallo !
