Redwall Movie & TV Series

[AnimeFan188]

Netflix acquires the rights to all 22 Redwall books, plans film
and series

"Netflix has acquired the rights to all 22 books in Brian Jacques' fantasy series
Redwall, marking the first time that rights to the entire series have been
purchased by one film or television company. Netflix made a deal for the rights
with book publisher Penguin Random House Children, according to Deadline.

This is a major franchise move even for Netflix, as the books are considered
classics by many and have sold more than 30 million copies. The series follows the
fantasy adventures of noble and heroic talking animals. Every book in the series
was written by author Brian Jacques, who passed away in 2011 shortly before the
publication of the 22nd book.

The streaming network plans to create both a feature film and an event TV series.
The film will be based on the series' first book, which is simply titled Redwall. The
screenplay will be written by Patrick McHale, who is best known as the creator of
Cartoon Network's critically acclaimed animated miniseries Over the Garden Wall."
