Hollywood starlet Reese Witherspoon's production company has bought the movie rights to a book based on the horrific murder of Victoria teen Reena Virk.
According to entertainment sources, Witherspoon's Type A Films is developing Under the Bridge - based on Rebecca Godfrey's true-crime account of 14-year-old Virk's brutal high school murder -into a movie.
Virk's part-naked and badly-bruised body was found in The Gorge waterway several days after the attack.
Sources say Witherspoon is in discussions with Thirteen director Catherine Hardwicke to direct Under The Bridge.
There's no word yet on whether Witherspoon will star.
