Harry Styles and Lily James are in negotiations to star in an untitled adaptation of “My Policeman,” a novel which Amazon Studios has just won the rights to produce alongside Berlanti Productions, an individual with knowledge of the project told TheWrap.

Michael Grandage, a Tony-winning theater director, will direct the feature film from a script by Ron Nyswaner (“Philadelphia”).

“My Policeman” is a 2012 novel by Bethan Roberts set in the 1950s in Brighton and follows a gay policeman who, due to the constraints on homosexual relationships of the era, ends up marrying a woman despite his love of another man.
