Hannah confirmed the news in a Facebook post Wednesday.

"Can we buy tickets now? For the first time ever, sisters Dakota and Elle Fanning are set to star in a film together," Hannah captioned her post announcing the release date.

The book follows sisters navigating diverging paths amid World War II France.

"The Nightingale will be the first time we act on screen together. We have played the same character at different ages but have never spoken to each other in front of a camera," Elle Fanning said in 2019. "For years, we have looked for a film to do with one another and then this gem appeared. As sisters, to share our artistry with each other while bringing such a powerful sister story to life is a dream come true."

Michael Morris will direct the feature from a script by Dana Stevens.

Dakota Fanning is also set to star in All Her Fault, while Elle Fanning will star in Predator: Badlands and Sentimental Value.
