Our favourite YouTuber Lilly Singh, or aka “Superwoman”, has joined the HBO family and signed up for a film adaptation of “Fahrenheit 451”, Variety reported.
The popular Indo-Canadian online star, who has vlogged her way through to the top of the comedian genre, will soon be showing her acting skills on television. The show is based on Ray Bradbury’s classic novel of the same name. The book's title reflects book burning -- the temperature at which paper catches fire and burns. The story revolves around the life of a young fireman. It shows his struggles to regain his humanity.
