Reitman to Adapt Maynard's Latest Novel

SlashFilm reveals that director Jason Reitman (Thank You for Smoking, Juno) is in talks to develop Labor Day into a feature film.

"Maynard's inventive coming-of-age tale indelibly captures the anxiety and confusion inherent in adolescence, while the addition of a menacing element of suspense makes this emotionally fraught journey that much more harrowing," declares
Booklist.

Reitman's adaptation of Walter Kirn's novel Up in the Air is scheduled to hit theaters later this year.
