Oprah Hooks Up With Kate Winslet's Husband

Hooks up for a movie that is!

Oprah Winfrey is set to collaborate with director Sam Mendes and Focus Features on a film adaptation of the Joseph O’Neill novel Netherland.

The story takes place in “New York City, where a lonely Dutch expatriate becomes drawn to the sport of cricket and forms an unlikely bond to immigrant culture.”

Wonder if there’s a place to stick Kate Winslet into this?

Either way, with Oprah attached to the project, we think it’ll do fairly well.
