DMG Nabs Rights to Brandon Sanderson’s ‘Cosmere’ Book Universe in Massive
Deal (EXCLUSIVE)
DMG買下了布蘭登的小說宇宙，基本上大家所知的幾本著作未來都有可能被改編為電影
DMG Entertainment has nabbed film and licensing rights to “Cosmere,”
Brandon Sanderson’s acclaimed series of interconnected fantasy novels. The
entertainment and media company has committed to spending $270 million, which
will cover half of the money needed to back the first three movies made from
Sanderson’s canon. That makes it one of the largest literary deals of the
year. DMG beat out several interested parties for rights to the series. As
part of the pact, insiders say Sanderson will receive a minimum guarantee on
each film that is produced, as well as a rich backend, allowing the author to
make millions.
The “Cosmere” comprises the bulk of Sanderson’s writings, with DMG
likening it to acquiring a comic book universe rather than a single book
franchise. The books are a mixture of sci-fi and fantasy, and they unfold in
a number of different worlds and time periods, but are unified by an
intricate system of magic that drives the plots.
DMG is fast-tracking an adaptation of Sanderson’s “The Way of Kings,” the
first in the author’s series, “The Stormlight Archive,” and has hired
screenwriters Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan, the writing team behind
several “Saw” films, to adapt the book. DMG founder Dan Mintz will produce
the film, with Sanderson and Joshua Bilmes serving as executive producers.
DMG also intends on simultaneously adapting the first book in Sanderson’s “
Mistborn” series. It has yet to decide on a screenwriter for the project.
Sanderson’s books’ global sales top 10 million copies, making him one of
the few top-selling authors without a produced movie of his work.
“DMG is all about global entertainment brands built cinematically for the
worldwide audience, and Sanderson’s library of present and future material
provides one of the greatest story and character universes ever created,”
said Mintz in a statement.
“The people at DMG aren’t just producers or financiers. They’re fans,”
Sanderson said in a statement. “From the first moment we met, I knew they
understood my vision and goals for the Cosmere, and I’ve been excited to
work with them in bringing their vision for the universe to the screen.”
DMG has a publicly-listed Chinese arm, DMG Yinji, that gives it access to the
world’s second-largest film market. It has been very active acquiring
literary properties, recently nabbing Ken Liu’s “Grace of Kings” trilogy.
The studio’s upcoming projects include John Curran’s political drama “
Chappaquiddick,” the Felicity Jones and Nicholas Hoult thriller “Collide,”
and the Ed Helms and Owen Wilson comedy “Bastards.”
Melton and Dunstan’s upcoming projects include “Scary Stories” at CBS, as
well as “The Reckoning,” a pitch the pair sold recently Paramount with
Platinum Dunes producing and Michael Chaves directing.
Tor Books is Sanderson’s publisher. He is represented by Debbie Deuble-Hill
and Steve Fisher at APA, Joshua Bilmes at JABberwocky, and attorney Matt
Sugarman at Weintraub Tobin. Paradigm’s David Boxerbaum, Underground’s
Trevor Engelson, and attorney Dave Feldman represent Melton and Dunstan.
