No Country For Old Men producer Scott Rudin is to make a big-screen version of Richard Price's novel Lush Life.
The story revolves around a restaurant manager and a bartender who walk a friend home on New York's Lower East Side. One of the men ends up dead and a murder investigation follows.
Price has split his career between novels and writing for the screen. His novels include Clockers and Freedomland, both of which were turned into movies. He has worked on the films Shaft and Ransom and TV show The Wire.
Rudin recently signed on to produce The Yiddish Policemen's Union for Joel and Ethan Coen. The film is based on Michael Chabon's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel.
