There's room for everyone on the Wall.

And now, the moment I have been quietly waiting for...

Ahem. From today's announcement at Publishers Weekly:

"Film rights: Mira Grant's trilogy, Feed, Deadline, and Blackout, optioned to Rachel Olschan, producer at Electric Entertainment, by Pouya Shahbazian of FinePrint, on behlf of Diana Fox at Fox Literary."

WE OPTIONED THE FILM RIGHTS TO FEED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now, this doesn't mean this will necessarily be a movie (although I hope there will), but it takes us a huge, huge step closer to that becoming a reality. Everyone I've dealt with has been amazing, supportive, and enthusiastic, and now there's a beautiful chance that maybe, we can see Shaun and Georgia Mason on the big screen.

How's that for a book-day present?

ETA: Belated comment amnesty, because you guys are awesomely enthusiastic, and wow will I never get to all these comments!

Wooooo! Congrats and awesome and yay. So psyched for you and the Masons.

Well. Maybe I shouldn't be TOO psyched for what the Masons would have to go through...
I can't think of a better way to celebrate a book release day. Will keep fingers crossed for MOVIE release day!

Congrats! I'd love to see it on the big screen.

(That would involve some interesting choices in the adaptation...)

Edit: On a related topic, have you seen this short film yet? Seems like it could be set in the Newsflesh setting.
I have, and I love it so.

Congratulations! May the options money serve your cats well!

(And yes, I'd love to see a well-made movie. But the cats are more important.)
My thoughts exactly.
