What book hasn't yet been made into a movie or TV series but should? Who should play the leads?


message 2: by Mandy (new)

Mandy (djinnia) | 657 comments I would kinda want to see love hypothesis with Adam driver and daisy Ridley as the leads.


message 3: by Siobhan (new)

Siobhan J | 3 comments The Animorphs series by KA Applegate has been made into a TV series, but it was terrible so I want another one. No idea on lead actors, but tbh I kind of want it to be animated so that wouldn't matter so much. (I would want somebody like Benedict Cumberbatch to voice Visser 3, though, as he has a FANTASTIC voice).

Otherwise I absolutely loved Bridgerton, so would be very keen on more romance novel adaptations. Especially more LGBT ones, as there are a lot of great stories there.

Jill | 725 comments I just finished The Celebrants by Steven Rowley and I think it would be a great movie.

Denise | 489 comments The Overstory. Just because I want to see what it looks like in the tree they camped in...from the book it seems like there is a river in the tree

Joy D | 668 comments Babel: An Arcane History would also make a great film or mini-series.

Tracy | 2618 comments @Joy - re: Babel� please wait until I’m done reading it though. I just started Chapter 4!

He's my go to whenever I picture any Hero, but he would make the prefect Brisbane from the novels.


message 16: by Jennifer W (new)

Jennifer W | 661 comments I finished When Christ and His Saints Slept, how this period has not been made into a show is beyond me. War and sex and politics and betrayals.

I've also wanted a movie or show version of The Gargoyle. Lots of visuals in that which I would love to see.
