C.S. Lewis's Screwtape Letters to Become Feature Film

Submitted By Jon

Variety is reporting that Ralph Winter Productions (the producer behind movies such as The Fantastic Four, and X-Men) is producing an adaptation of The Screwtape Letters for the big screen. Just as with the Narnia films, Walden Media will be attached to this film in a producing role as well.

If you've read The Screwtape Letters, you like me will be very interested in how they adapt this book into a film--it won't be easy, and many liberties will need to be taken with what precisely was written.

Over 1 million copies of The Screwtape Letters have been sold since 2001, so there is clearly a "fan" base for this film (though "fan" really isn't the right word, is it?).
