Six-time
Oscar nominee, Amy Adams, will star in
Netflix’s adaptation of Hillbilly Elegy, directed byRon Howard and based on J.D.
Vance's memoir. The 2003 Middletown High School graduate
wrote the 2016 best-seller about growing up poor among
working-class "hillbillies" in the old steel town. It tells the
story of his family and its history of poverty, alcoholism, and
other issues they struggled with in life in Kentucky and
Ohio.
