THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER's Stephen Chbosky and Emma Watson will soon be reuniting.

According to Deadline, Chbosky has tapped Watson to star in his upcoming film adaptation of WHILE WE'RE YOUNG, based on Adena Halpern's novel.

Per the report, the film's officially described as: a 75-year old woman, still feeling frisky and that she has far more in common with her 29-year old granddaughter than with her stuffy 55 year old daughter, is granted a birthday wish. She gets to be 29 again, for a day. She uses the time to go on an adventure with her now same-aged granddaughter. The film tells the story of three generations of women.

(500) DAYS OF SUMMER's Michael H. Weber and Scott Neustadter will pen the script.

Watson last appeared on the big screen in The Bling Ring, with a cameo in This is The End. She will next be seen in Noah. Her past credits include The Perks of Being a Wallflower, My Week with Marilyn, the Harry Potter franchise, and the TV movie Ballet Shoes.
