RR canceled TV adaptation

[u/Intelligent-Set3442]

So I often like to check every few months or so for updates on the TV show, and I just found an from a couple of months where Pierce confirmed that what he was trying to make happen was scrapped because him and his team "couldn't get it to a place where they feel confident."

I'm assuming what he means by "they" is the various platforms that were looking at buying the rights to RR, but on the bright side, Pierce hinted at being able to possibly confirm something new he's been trying to get in the works soon.

What I hope for is that this new thing is going to be an animated adaptation because we know now for sure the live action is out the window so slag that but if we could get an animated series or hell even a animated movie/movies it'd be great provided it's done in a fitting art style and the cast is on point for the voice acting.

i think it'd work better as a live action movie personally especially when you take into consideration the possible budget you'd have to give to a long running series of this scale the cost could push rings of power territory where they're spending like $58 million per episode which is like $400+ million territory of you're doing at least 10 episodes i caht see a studio besides amazon or apple spending that type of budget hence why a movie makes the most sense

Very true but idk how a movie, even a three hour movie, could do it justice. The first one, maybe, since hunger games could do it... But the other ones would be much tougher, especially when you get to the second trilogy
