Christine Jeffs has revealed that her planned romcom Wonderful Tonight is like a sequel to Knocked Up.

Sunshine Cleaning director Jeffs told DS that her project follows on from where Judd Apatow's 2007 comedy finished.

"I guess it picks up where Knocked Up left off," she said. "It's not really about the pregnancy, it's about the relationship."

Jeffs also said that she is working on a "passion project", a movie adaptation of Jane Smiley's novel Horse Heaven.

"It's an ensemble piece set against the backdrop of the horse racing world," she explained. "It is funny and has beautiful characters. I've been working on Horse Heaven for a very long time, many years."
