Article this week is about how Sony Pictures is negotiating to put Little House on the Prairie into a movie. The movie will be directed by David Gordon Green and Abi Morgan as the writer of the script. "Scott Rudin will produce with Trip Friendly." "Little House On The Prairie is based on the semi-autobiographical classic children’s book series by Laura Ingalls Wilder..." The series of books were once a T.V. series that played from 1974-1983. Things are not set yet but they are working on getting it into a movie!
I think this article is important because it shows how after many years you can still use old books to make a movie. I bet a lot of people never really expected for someone to make a movie out of it. This does not necessarily impact me as a student but as a future filmmaker this is important because maybe books that are out right now and are not as a film, can be made into movies later on and maybe even be a huge hit. I think many questions that this raises for me and the industry are stuff like:
-"Will it actually become a movie?"
-"How much will tickets be?"
-"Will this movie be made in 3D?"
-"What other stories will be made into movies?"
