John Green's 'Looking For Alaska' Probably Won't Ever Be A Movie
Looks like the Looking For Alaska movie has been put on the shelf.
Author John Green took to Twitter today, telling fans straight out the issue about making the movie based on his best selling book of the same name.
“As this has so many RTs, I guess I should say: No Looking for Alaska movie is forthcoming (to my knowledge anyway),” he wrote. “I have no control over the movie rights to Looking for Alaska. To my knowledge, Paramount (who own the rights) have no plans to make a film.”
I sold the rights in 2005. Paramount refuses to sell them back to me for any price. You'd have to ask them why. https://t.co/xYOq2FLFqB
