Katherine Heigl is apparently not content to rest on her laurels after taking home the Emmy [0] for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama [0] last Sunday. Today we have news that Heigl has optioned the rights [1] to make the novel Lost and Found [2] into a movie. Variety has more:

Jacqueline Sheehan's novel, published by HarperCollins imprint Avon A, focuses on a widowed psychologist who moves to a remote Maine island and works in an animal hospital after her husband dies.

Heigl is said to have contacted the author's agent after reading the book. It's not yet known if she may star in the pic.

Heigl is producing the movie with the company that she heads up with her mother Nancy Heigl. Yes, this is the same mother that Katherine joked didn't think she'd win the Emmy, and then backpedaled and assured us her mother was very supportive while the camera caught Nancy Heigl looking overwhelmed. Well, they're producing another [2] movie together, so all's well that ends well, I guess!
