Writer Zoë Green has been hired to write the Sci Fi’s "The Diamond Age," Daily Variety reports.

The project is based on a 1995 novel called "The Diamond Age: Or a Young Lady’s Illustrated Primer" from writer Neal Stephenson, and will be produced by George Clooney and Grant Heslov for their Smokehouse Pictures company.

The story is about an interactive book created by a man for his daughter to counter what he believes is a culture that stifles creativity.
