Yeah it's being produced by Bad Wolf and New Line Cinema. Whether Lin-Manuel Miranda has actually joined or is merely in negotiations seems to vary depending on the report atm.
I can't wait to see who's playing Mrs Coulter tbh.

I love the books, so I hope this is a good adaption! I didn't even mind the movie adaption tbh.

I watched it when it was in cinemas (just over a decade ago now
) and liked it but I hadn't read the book at that point but I've always been aware that the movie apparently sanitised the more anti religious subject matter. Since I've now read Northern Lights I need to rewatch so I can compare it properly, but I already know I'll be annoyed by them completely cutting off the book's ending just because they wanted to save it to open the sequel that never happened.
