Allegedly there is a movie based on the Chronicles of Narnia in the works,
as well as an Ender’s Game movie.

The other problem they’d have is that if they want to do sequels, they’ll
probably want to do them in order of publication, but the Battle School
actors will end up outgrowing their roles for the Bean trilogy if they wait
until they’ve finished the Ender story, and the likelihood that they’ll
decide to run with Bean’s story first is pretty slim.

I’m pretty excited about this too, but it’s probably a few years away from
the screen. It looks like they’ve only aquired the right’s to Ender’s Game
and Ender’s Shadow, and combining them to make one film.

I’m greeting this update with a huge saltlick. The Ender’s Game movie has
been stuck in about the same spot as it is now for at least 6 years. I
recall looking up details on it back in grad school, and seeing basically the
same information with a different date stamped on the top of the page.
I’ll hold out hope, though ... I’d rather wait until the state-of-the-art is
advanced enough to really pull off the Battle Room scenes seamlessly. I have
these nightmares where the result, if rushed through to get it into the
theaters before he technology is mature enough, looks like the
video-game-esque images lately made ubiquitous by “Torque” previews and
Britney’s “Toxic” video.
In Summary - I’m glad to hear the project’s still alive, but I’m not going to
hold my breath. Oh, and they’d better not screw it up :P

Oh Gee, how could they possibly screw it up? ;) It’s not like they will be going
for a PG or at most a PG-13 rating. I wonder how they will portray the fact that
Ender beats two kids to death rather brutally?
