Sugarman eyes 'Queen's' crown for New Line pic
Indie director Sara Sugarman is in early negotiations to make her studio feature debut at the helm of New Line Cinema's Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen. Based on the Dyan Sheldon novel, Drama Queen will star Hilary Duff as a New York teenager who reinvents herself when she is forced to move to a New Jersey suburb. The film was adapted for the big screen by Gail Parent and is being produced by Jerry Leider and Robert Shapiro.

She also has appeared as an actress in Sid and Nancy and the British television series Grange Hill.
