Update on The Screwtape Letters Movie From Producer Ralph Winter

02/17/07
Submitted By Jon

"Ralph WinterProducer Ralph Winter was interviewed by Infuze Magazine, and had this to say about the progress on the in pre-production film, The Screwtape Letters:

What's happening with C.S. Lewis' The Screwtape Letters?

It's in development with Fox and Walden Media. Fox has owned the property for decades. They bought it in the 50s. There was management at Fox that wanted it and bought it, and they've owned it for decades.

So what's the current status?

We're signing deals right now. We're finishing the Fox option deal, we're finishing my deal with Walden. Doug Gresham's deal is done.

Does the movie have a green light?

Not yet. We've been talking to Randall Wallace about writing and directing. We need to have more discussions with Fox and Walden about that, and make sure that Randy's still available. Everybody wants to make this movie; I think it's going to happen, I just don't know what the timetable is right now.

We're very excited about that. With the right script, dealing with temptation and that whole upside down world, it could be a very, very interesting movie. And it's going to be dark. This isn't a light, happy, Narnia piece. "


I can't find ANYTHING that is after February...wonder if this is a no-go???

It will be interesting to see how they turn Screwtape Letters into a movie--it doesn't adapt itself to action as well. Could be really good, though.
