I’m actually super excited for this movie and it seems like Vogt-Roberts is the right director for the job. I think he’ll end up delivering a cool film.
When previously talking about the project, Sunrise President Yasuo Miyakawa said that Sunrise has maintained almost all of the control over the film adaptation. That control was a requirement for Sunrise to agree to the project. Legendary will act as an active collaborator on the project. Netflix, will be distributing the film.
