Denis Villeneuve Tackling Adaptation of Sci-Fi Classic ‘Rendezvous With Rama’ (Exclusive)
quote:

After tackling Frank Herbert’s speculative classic Dune, Denis Villeneuve is set to direct an adaption of another sci-fi story from genre staple Arthur C. Clarke.

Villeneuve will helm Rendezvous With Rama for Alcon Entertainment, which worked with the director on the Hugh Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal starrer Prisoners and Blade Runner: 2049. Along with Alcon co-CEOs Broderick Johnson and Andrew Kosove, Morgan Freeman and Lori McCreary will produce via their Revelations Entertainment banner, with Freeman having previously held the rights to the 1973 novel.

Please God, let me live long enough to see this. This has been my #1 wish for a novel to be adapted to film for 30 years.

Now we’re talking. Just don’t try to add any unnecessary elements and this will be amazing.

Hell yeah!

Edit: I hope we both live long enough to see this. I know 2001 Space Odyssey gets all the hype, but this has also been the one I have been waiting for.

Side note: My uncle was preaching in Sri Lanka and got to meet and get a book autographed by Arthur C Clarke down there before he died.

What do you consider unnecessary? This book is going to require a creative adaptation to make it fit into any sort of Hollywood blockbuster package.

That's a full plate. Dune part two is going to take some time.
