Tomi Adeyemi’s debut novel heads to the big screen in a new blockbuster deal.
Reports say that Fox 2000 has made a preemptive acquisition of ‘Children of Blood and Bone.’ It is the first installment of the fantasy trilogy.
The book is rooted in Nigerian mythology and is inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement.
Adeyemi is a Nigerian-American writer who graduated from Harvard before receiving a fellowship to study West African mythology and culture in Salvador, Brazil.
