'DARKOVER' SF SERIES
FINDS ITS WRITERS!
In TV news, something I've already announced now has writers: as
'Deadline' reports Amazon's TV series adaptation of Marion Zimmer
Bradley's sf classic saga DARKOVER which has 25 books translated into
almost 20 languages, will be written by MARCO POLO's hunk Patrick
Macmanus and LOST's Elizabeth Sarnoff who are also producing. It is a
mix of fantasy and science fiction, an ambitious tale tracing the
development of a civilization from its inadvertent founding on a distant
planet by a group of human colonists through war-torn feudal ages to
recontact 2,000 years later with their Earthly descendants.

There seems to be a new Star Wars-themed movie popping up ever so often these days.
ReplyDeletesadly, yes, every year one next five years or so :(
DeleteI wonder if Star Wars is still going to be going strong in another 100 years. Seems like that is one franchise that is never going to end.
ReplyDeletesadly, it seems it won't.... that and Avatar as well...
Deletehow many spinoffs do we need?
ReplyDeletewe stopped needing them before the first one appeared :)
DeleteSorry ladies and gentlemen but I'm looking forward to every Star Wars movie that comes in the theaters! But I do understand that some people are getting a bit tired of all those new spinoffs and episodes.
ReplyDeleteGreetings
Peter
Enjoy them, Peter, while they are still on :)
DeleteI will DEZ! I will! :-D
DeleteGreetings
Peter
I know! :)
DeleteI loved the Darkover books. Wish Marion Zimmer Bradley were still here to write more. It's never quite the same when someone takes over.
ReplyDeletethey do sound wonderfully epic, I wish Amazon spent 100$ million on that instead of that MARCO POLO borefest
DeleteAlden Ehrenreich was a real gem in "Hail Caesar" so good luck to him playing Han Solo!
ReplyDeletehe was? Does he have expressions? I cannot establish since he is always so grumpy looking on his photos
DeleteI'll have to start reading those Darkover books!
ReplyDeleteyou have about 25 to cover :)
DeleteInteresting choice for Han. As long as he has screen charisma in spades, I'm on board.
ReplyDeletewe will have to wait and see, although I was rooting for Jack Reynor, he has the warm charisma
DeleteDarkover sounds very exciting! Looking forward to the series. I really enjoyed the new Star Wars movie. Hoping good things for the spinoff!
ReplyDeleteI hope the series won't be cheap!
Delete99
ReplyDeleteyou have 99 problems and I'm not one of them?
