Elaboration from eCanadaNow on One Day:

Actress Anne Hathaway is no stranger to starring in movies with a fairytale theme. The 27 year-old star of “Ella Enchanted” and “The Princess Diaries” is set to play the lead role in the upcoming movie “One Day”. The movie will be based on the popular British novel by David Nicholls.

The movie is reminiscent of Cinderella and tells the story of working-class Emma, played by Hathaway, who meets a rich and charming boy named Dexter on the day of their high school graduation in 1988. The pair bumps into one another every day for the following 20 years. The role of Dexter will be played by Jim Sturgess, a British actor who has starred in the movies “Across the Universe” and “21?, as well as “The Other Boleyn Girl”.

The novel by Nicholls was a best-seller in England, and the author will also write the screenplay for the film. Oscar nominated director Lone Scherfig will direct the film for Focus Features. Scherfig is familiar with film adaptations, as her previous work has included the film “An Education”, based on the memoir by Lynn Barber. Filming for “One Day” will begin this summer and is scheduled to be released in theaters next year.
