Danielle Steel sells film rights to books
Danielle Steel has sold the rights to at least 30 of her books to New Line Home Entertainment.
International best sellers Safe Harbour, Ransom and Second Chance are included in the agreement.
The films are expected to be exclusively for television and home video.
"People do like the film versions of things," Steel told The Associated Press on Thursday. "I thought this was a nice way to get my books back into the marketplace."
"Danielle Steel is one of the world's great literary brands, and New Line Home Entertainment is proud to be in business with such a cultural icon," Kevin Kasha, New Line Home Entertainment's senior vice president of acquisitions and programming, said in a statement.
Steel, 58, has published more than 60 books and her latest, "Toxic Bachelors," just came out. She has another book due in February and has a line of perfume coming out next fall.
