Another Attempt At Elfquest Movie

Another Attempt At Elfquest Movie You can’t grow up playing D&D and loving fantasy novels without being aware of Elfquest, a comic series that started back in the late seventies about a group of Elves seeking out others of their kind and surviving in a world filled with evil humans and trolls. I wasn’t the world’s biggest fan of Elfquest, but I’ve been aware of it for some time.

Hollywood has also been aware of the series, with several attempts to turn it into movies or animated series throughout the decades. They haven’t succeeded yet, but that’s not going to stop them from trying, and Warner Brothers is the latest to give it that old college try. They’ve hooked up with Rawson Thurber (Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story) to write and direct a feature length picture.

I don’t know what the hold up has been on an Elfquest movie in the past. The epic story seems ripe for adaptation. Maybe in a post Lord of the Rings movie world this will be the right time for the comic to break through.

    This is great news. I'm surprised that it's taken Hollywood so long to figure out what a goldmine Elfquest is in terms of rich, compelling stories with action, drama, violence, passion and most importantly, depth and heart (not to mention a huge, existing fan-base and major sequel and merchandising potential).

  1. Rick Says:

    I have been waiting since I was 10 years old (1981) for this movie to come out.

    I am so happy, I can't frikkin believe it!
