The Big Announcement at Dragon Con
Another interesting thing that made this Dragon Con different from the ones before was that I got to make an announcement.
One of the most common questions I get is: When are the Anita Blake books going to be in a movie or television show? My usual answer is; there’s nothing to tell and I just won’t answer the question. I stopped answering the question because no matter how innocently I answered people would get on the internet and make more of the answer than there was to make, causing rumors to spread. But just before we went to Dragon con, I had decided if anyone asked the movie/television question that I had a new answer. But, for the first time ever, no one asked the question.
Panel after panel at Dragon Con and no one asked the right question. Finally on Sunday afternoon for my Laurell and a microphone panel, the question was asked. I could finally give the very carefully prepared statement. The statement is below.
"I’m thrilled to announce that we have joined forces with a first class Writer, Producer, and film studio. The rumors are true – a movie and a possible TV show based on the Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter 16-book series is in the works. Stay tuned to the website for updates and details."
We made the announcement at the con, so this time the rumors are, indeed, true. But what I’ve put above is all I can say at this point. Someone asked, a follow up question about casting. My reply; I’ve given you the only information I can give you at this point in time. More to come.
Sorry to be so mysterious, but I thought you’d rather have some information than no information. Enjoy.
