Ina Garten Won’t Change Her Life Story for a Biopic

If you were itching for a movie about what Ina Garten’s life was like working at the White House, or how she transitioned into the home-cook extraordinaire she is, you might need to keep scratching. Garten told People that she has no plans to make her life into a movie, despite getting several offers after she released her memoir, Be Ready When the Luck Happens. “It’s funny, I don’t make long-term plans. I do what I do as well as I can, and things come along, and I say no to most of them,” she explained. “I’ve been approached to do a movie of my memoir, but I know that when a producer or director gets ahold of a story, they want to make it work on film and they’re going to change it. So I’ve never been willing to do that. It’s my story. I get to keep it. And I don’t want people making up things just for dramatic effect. And so I’ve always said no.” Okay, but has she seen Tony? Just let Matt Johnson take the wheel.
