CHRISTOPHER GOLDEN'S ARARAT
TO BECOME TELEVISION SERIES
 |
| Ararat will be turned into a TV series |
As Deadline reports,
AGC Television will turn
Christopher Golden's book
ARARAT into TV series. The 2007 best seller is getting a sequel
The Pandora Room this spring. The story is set in the aftermath of an earthquake which reveals a secret cave inside Mount Ararat, and a daring newly engaged couple are determined to be the first ones inside. What they discover will change everything – the cave is actually a buried ancient ship that many come to believe is Noah’s Ark. Their adventure quickly turns into a horrific nightmare when a massive blizzard traps them inside. As they pray to be rescued, something wicked is listening to their prayers – and it wants to answer. The third part of the book Red Hands will be out in 2020.
CLAIRE MCFALL'S FERRYMAN
TO GET A MOVIE TREATMENT!
 |
| Ferryman saga is ending this spring |
Legendary has, meanwhile, hired
Kelly Marcel to adapt and direct
Claire McFall's best selling fantasy saga
FERRYMAN into a movie. The trilogy, which is ending with the third part this spring, has been a massive success around the world (even in China where it sold in more than million copies).
FERRYMAN follows a young girl named Dylan as she emerges from the
debris of a train crash on an empty Scottish landscape. Believing
herself to be the only survivor, she learns instead that she is the only
fatality – and is trapped in a dangerous limbo. She meets a mysterious
boy named Tristan, her ferryman, sent to guide her through the wasteland
and into the afterlife, but they fall in love with perilous
consequences.
I'm not familiar with Golden's book, but I am familiar with the claim that Mt. Ararat is in eastern Turkey, and supposedly the place where Noah's Ark (ship) landed after the big flooding.
ReplyDeleteThe TV series sounds interesting, yet I doubt it I'll want to watch "a nightmare of biblical proportions".
too much of that in real life :)
Delete"Ferryman" sounds intriguing. The other one, not so much.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like the second one!
DeleteI haven't heard of Ferryman before. I just added it to my reading list, though it looks like my library doesn't have it yet. Hopefully with the movie, they'll get on the ball and order it now.
ReplyDeletethe writer seems like a nice lady, she liked the post over at Twitter last night.
DeleteI love it when you tell us of the stars and writers and such liking your tweets. I hate it when people think they are too big for their britches and can't appreciate it when the little people give them some free advertising. Lovely that she liked your tweet, dear!
Deletewe have a number of celebs even following us there :) the latest one is Poldark director, a very nice chap. The biggest craze was two weeks ago when Mark Millar tweeted our post on that new story of his that will be done into a series with Sandra Bullock. It brought us a few hundreds of retweets and quite a lot of visits here, and then a day later we had similar hits from the fans of some other actors. We also got retweets from the Spanish Princess writer and producer last week.... it happens all the time, I just forget to brag about it :)
