"I was in Toronto working on Suits when I first got the Firefly script," Heigl remembered to Insider.
"I went and bought the book and read it between scenes on set, and I ended up in tears because I was so moved and swept off my feet by the story.
"It had everything I'd decided I wanted in my next project - the heart, the love, the exploration of grief, and the humor.
"I also love that it's about women — it's not a romance between lovers, it's about two women and their lifelong love for one another as friends."

The Emmy Award winner added: " I feel like this is the kind of story I want to tell.
"When I first came across the script for Firefly Lane, I was at a point in my career where I had no idea what was going to happen next.
Sarah Chalke commented to EW: "I couldn't believe it when I read it. I just fell in love with it.
"I laughed, and I cried, and then I laughed again, and then I cried again, and it just took me on this journey.
"I fell in love with the story of these two women and their incredible friendship over these 30 years.
"Then I fell in love with the role of Kate and how lucky it was to get to play somebody over these decades, and how she changed and went from being awkward and shy and vulnerable, to really finding herself and finding a voice in what she wanted."
