Weinstein, who has denied having non-consensual sex with anyone, was sentenced in New York in March 2020 to 23 years in prison for rape and sexual assault involving two women. He has appealed against the conviction and is seeking a new trial, while also facing extradition to Los Angeles to face further charges of rape.
The She Said book focuses on the months of behind-the-scenes investigations and legal obstacles that Twohey and Kantor faced to publish their reports.
Though the Weinstein scandal has been the subject of several documentaries, and has inspired films and TV shows such as The Assistant and The Morning Show, She Said is the first feature film based on the claims against the producer himself.
It will be directed by German filmmaker Maria Schrader. No expected release date was announced.
