Dave Eggers goes Hollywood

I just read about a new film project, as yet untitled, based on work by Dave Eggers and Vendela Vida. I have not read A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, but I have heard enough praise for Dave Eggers, and read enough tidbits of his writing myself, to be excited about this film. That excitement might have something to do with the fact that director Sam Mendes (Jarhead) and actor John Krasinski (The Office) are involved. Either way, this comedy sounds promising. I'll be keeping my eyes open for more info.
