Putnam/Penguin Random House Samantha Josephs’ upcoming debut horror novel “Carrying,” about a transgender woman living in secret who miraculously discovers she’s pregnant, is getting a feature adaptation from Tommy Dorfman‘s Good Girl Productions.
Dorfman is set to direct and produce the project while Josephs will pen the screenplay.
An official logline for “Carrying” reads, “Martha is trans, so stealth even her family has no idea. She carved the woman she is out of the marble of a boy, and she’ll do whatever it takes to protect what she’s built. When a mysterious chronic illness and its debilitating symptoms threaten to upend her existence, she starts experimental treatments and gives in to her surprising, unsettling cravings. She’s even more shocked to discover that she’s undeniably, impossibly pregnant.”
