As the saying goes, behind every successful man is a strong woman -- who casts spells on his behalf. United Artists has attached "Breach" writer-director Billy Ray to adapt and direct a film version of the horror fantasy novel Conjure Wife. The 1943 debut novel by fantasy and science fiction writer Fritz Leiber Jr., "Conjure" centers on a New England college professor who discovers that his good fortune is the result of his wife's secret, magical interference. When he pressures her to stop, dark forces descend on the couple without her protection. The book has been adapted three times before: in 1944 as "Weird Woman," in 1962 as "Night of the Eagle"/"Burn, Witch, Burn!" and in 1980 as "Witches' Brew."
