Books That Are Being Adapted Into Movies

Back in Fall and Summer, I gave you reading lists filled with books that are being adapted into movies. To mark the Winter solstice and a new season, I'm giving you guys a brand-new list for your shelf with even more titles that you'll be seeing on the big screen. Cozy up with one of these books next to a warm fire — plus, you'll be able to claim that "the book was so much better" before everyone else.

Shia LaBeouf to Go Back in Time With Tom Hardy

Riding the coattails of Boardwalk Empire, the Prohibition era is about to return to the big screen.

Riding the coattails of Boardwalk Empire, the Prohibition era is about to return to the big screen. Shia LaBeouf and Tom Hardy (Inception) are set to star in The Wettest County in the World, playing a couple of bootleggers in the 1920s.

The film is based on a novel of the same name about a family who illegally buy and sell liquor and their life of crime. Both LaBeouf and Hardy can hold their own on the big screen, and I have a feeling these two could have great chemistry playing a couple of bad boys. Plus, they're bound to look much better in '20s-era costumes than Steve Buscemi.
