"Brandon Sanderson, a popular author of high-fantasy and science fiction books, has signed a deal with Apple TV to adapt his works set in the Cosmere fictional universe into films and TV shows. Sanderson said last year at Celsius 232, Spain's annual sci-fi and fantasy convention, that his ultimate dream project is a "really good Mistborn film." Apple TV is making that come true:"
"According to The Hollywood Reporter, Sanderson's deal with the streaming service is unprecedented, because he will have major creative control over the adaptations. He will write, produce and consult for the projects under development, and he will have the power to sign off on various aspects of the adaptations. That's a level of control other famous authors such as George R. R. Martin don't enjoy."
Brandon Sanderson signed a multi-project deal with Apple TV to adapt works set in the Cosmere universe into films and television. The first projects include feature-film adaptations of the Mistborn books and a television series based on The Stormlight Archive. Sanderson will write, produce, and consult on the adaptations and will have sign-off authority over key aspects, granting him unprecedented creative control. The Cosmere encompasses dozens of interlinked novels across multiple worlds and a shared creation myth that explains the universe's magic systems. No production timelines or release dates have been announced. Blue Marble is attached as producer for The Stormlight Archive adaptation.
