Meg Ryan Marries Carrie Fisher's Best Awful
If Carrie
Fisher's life were dull, what would she write about? Alas,
adventures like surviving her crazy Hollywood upbringing and having her
husband leave her for another man mean she'll never want for material.
And now HBO has announced plans to turn Fisher's latest autobiographical
novel, The Best Awful, into a miniseries starring Meg Ryan.
Continuing
the story of Suzanne Vale - Fisher's alter ego, who first appeared in
Postcards from the Edge - Best Awful sees our heroine
rebounding from divorce with the help of prescription drugs, a crazy
road trip to Mexico with her tattoo artist, and yet another stint in
rehab.
Fisher will adapt the script herself, but no word yet as to when we'll
see Ryan fall apart and put herself back together.
