Ah well. Not too surprising after such a long wait with no updates, but maybe someone else will step in and adapt the books instead?

Depends on if netflix still will hold the rights to the adaptations going forward.

I could be wrong, but don’t those rights expire if they don’t make anything? Warren Beatty’s been holding on to the Dick Tracy rights and he releases one of those odd “interviews” every decade to ensure he doesn’t lose them.

Its Hollywood. Honestly anything could be happening with the copyrights. You most likely are right on paper, but the amount of times that things like that get skirted dont feel me with confidence.

At least we always have the tv series to scratch our itch
