It looks like Christopher Kyle will be penning DreamWorks’ latest book adaptation project SHADOW AND BONE. Kyle, who wrote ALEXANDER and K-19: THE WIDOW MAKER, is in negotiations to write the project and it looks to be set in stone.
SHADOW AND BONE, a young adult novel by Leigh Bardugo, is about a land under attack by a swath of darkness and is being infested by creatures who eat human flesh. The story follows a young girl who discovers she has a power to change that and is taken to be trained by her country’s magic elite.
HARRY POTTER producer David Heyman will be co-producing the project alongside Jeffrey Clifford, who produced UP IN THE AIR. Christopher Kyle’s latest project is SERENA, a film about Depression-Era North Carolina starring Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper.
