Neil Gaiman's Hansel and Gretel

A graphic novel adaptation of the Brothers Grimm fairy tale Hansel and Gretel by American Gods author Neil Gaiman is not even set to release until October, but a movie adaptation is already on the way.

The movie is being developed by Juliet Blake, who teamed with Steven Spielberg and Oprah Winfrey for the recent movie The Hundred-Foot Journey.

Of the announcement, Gaiman said:

“For me, retelling Hansel and Gretel was a way of telling an old tale in a way that made it immediate and true, and about us, now. It reminds us of how paper thin civilization really is. It’s about hunger, and about families.

I’m thrilled and delighted to be working with Juliet Blake to bring Hansel and Gretel to the world again, and to show people how much this story has to say to us.”

Other Gaiman works that have been turned into movies include Stardust and Coraline, with adaptations of both Sandman and American Gods on the way.
