In October 2017, Channing Tatum announced that plans for a movie adaptation, upon which he had been working in association with the Weinstein Company, were no longer to continue in the wake of allegations of sexual assaults by Harvey Weinstein. The movie was to have been Tatum's directorial debut.[2]
