Republic Pictures has acquired Adulthood, directed by Alex Winter and written by novelist Michael M.B. Galvin.

Adulthood is a darkly comic, modern-noir story about sister and brother Megan and Noah, who barely hang on in present-day America. When they discover a dead body, long buried in their parents’ basement, the siblings are pulled back to the hometown they ran away from and into a rabbit hole of crime and murder.
