Cameron's 8 Simple Rules to the Big Screen

'The Devil Wears Prada' producer Wendy Finerman is bringing W Bruce Cameron's book '8 Simple Rules for Marrying My Daughter' to the big screen.
Cameron's '8 Simple Rules for Marrying My Daughter' is the sequel to his bestseller-turned-hit TV series.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Cameron is adapting his semi-autobiographical novel into a comedy with co-writer Cathryn Michon, author of the 'Grrl Genius Guide' book series.
The film will offer wry commentary in the same vein as his 2001 book '8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter', the basis of ABC's eponymous series starring the late John Ritter.
The plot will revolve around a divorced dad juggling a younger girlfriend and two daughters who both get engaged at the same time.
The book's subtitle, 'And Other Reasonable Advice from the Father of the Bride (Not That Anyone Is Paying Attention)' provides a clue to the central theme.
