Toronto-born actress and director Sarah Polley is reportedly in talks with Sony to adapt Louisa May Alcott's Little Women for the big screen.

The post civil-war drama follows the stories of four sisters—Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy March—as they pass from childhood to adulthood.

Alcott originally published the novel in two parts, in 1868 and 1869, with the characters based loosely on her own sisters.

Polley, 36, who shot to fame as a child star on the Canadian period drama Road to Avonlea, most recently won accolades for her 2012 documentary, the personal film Stories We Tell. 

She also received an Oscar-nomination in 2008 for her adapted screenplay for Away From Her​. The Alzheimer's drama was based on a short story by Canadian Nobel laureate Alice Munro.

Little Women has already been made into a movie at least three times. A 1994 version starred Winona Ryder as the fiercely independent Jo — the same role played by screen legend Katharine Hepburn in a 1933 adaptation. A 1949 remake, featuring Janet Leigh and June Allyson, won an Oscar for best art direction and set design.

Sony's former co-chair Amy Pascal will produce the Little Women remake, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

She has recently started taking on a producer role at the studio, overseeing franchises like Ghostbusters and Spider-Man.
