Deadline reports that production company A24 and Nightcrawler producer, Jennifer Fox, are planning to adapt Ursula K. Le Guin's beloved fantasy series, Earthsea, into a television series!
With Le Guin's blessing (and her son's support) to Fox, my fingers are crossed that we will finally get a proper adaptation of the Earthsea stories.

“Ursula Le Guin is a literary legend with a huge fan base and her work has been translated into practically every written language on the globe,” said Fox. “She is second only to Tolkien in influence in this genre, and before she died last year, she agreed to put her most beloved work in my hands. This project is, therefore, a sacred trust and priority for me as well as an opportunity to create an iconic piece of American culture.”

“Ursula long hoped to see an adaptation of Earthsea that represented a collaboration between her ideas and words and the visual storytelling of others,” said the author’s son, Theo Downes-Le Guin. “I feel very fortunate that, with Jennifer Fox and A24, we have a bedrock of producing and development experience that can bring the sweeping narrative and moral truths of my mother’s work to screen.”
