More of Kristen Roupenian’s work is headed to the screen.

You may remember her viral short story, "Cat Person," became a thriller movie; now, "Biter," from her collection "Cat Person" and Other Stories, will become a movie, too.

Zoë Kravitz will star in the dark comedy, according to Deadline.

The site has another literary-adaptation update for us: that Oscar winner Chloé Zhao will direct the film version of Maggie O’Farrell’s Hamnet.
