📚🎬 Adapt This Book! | Dream Movie & TV Adaptations 🎬📚

What if Hollywood actually listened to us for once?

In this episode of Adapt This Book, Neil, Marie and Luke each pick a book they desperately want to see turned into a film or TV series — and then argue, nerd out, and wildly over-pitch like we’ve accidentally wandered into a Netflix boardroom.

📖 Luke brings the emotional devastation with Flowers for Algernon — a beautiful, heartbreaking sci-fi classic that would absolutely ruin everyone in the best possible way.

📖 Neil champions Daviola, a dark, unsettling novel billed as White Lotus meets Hereditary — rich people, simmering dread, and the kind of slow-burn horror that would make for a seriously fucked-up prestige TV adaptation.

📖 Marie goes full fantasy with Nevermoor: The Trials of Morrigan Crow, pitching it as the perfect post–Harry Potter alternative — a rich, imaginative world, a young outsider hero, and enough magic, menace and heart to hook a whole new generation without feeling like a knock-off.

We talk tone, format (film vs TV), dream casting, what must not be screwed up, and why some books are crying out to be adapted.

👇 Let us know in the comments:
• Which book would you adapt?
• Who’s casting would you steal?
• And which studio would absolutely mess it up?
