"She Said," is based on the New York Times best-seller, "She Said: Breaking the Sexual Harassment Story That Helped Ignite a Movement" by Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey, two NYT reporters who helped expose Weinstein.

Pitt's production company Plan B and Annapurna Pictures have reportedly obtained rights to the story and will aim to tell the story behind the women who led the investigation.
