The perfect soldier is done taking orders. In case you're not so familiar with
Reboot, we're here to inform you that it's an upcoming young adult novel which comes from writer
Amy Tintera. But, we're not here to chat about the novel today, because we've just learned that Fox 2000 plans to adapt the whole thing for a big screen, and that
Lindsay Devlin will be in charge!
Lindsay Devlin has more than 13 years experience working in the film and television industry as an executive, producer and writer. She worked as the head of the story department at
Creative Artists Agency, and her latest writing endeavors include the supernatural thriller
Nocturne and
The Sleeping Beauty.
Now, she comes on board to write the script for
Reboot, and we're more than ready to give this young lady a try.
As for Tintera's novel, it will be published by
HarperTeen in May, and at this moment we know that the story is set after the world becomes infected with a deadly virus and killer slave soldiers are created from dead teenagers. Two re-animated teens then decide to band together to fight the organization responsible.
Fox 2000 picked up the rights in February, and Peter Chernin, Dylan Clark and Lane Shefter Bishop are attached to produce the feature film version.
In case you want to read more details about the whole thing, here's an official description of Tintera's novel:
Five years ago, Wren Connolly was shot three times in the chest. After 178 minutes she came back as a Reboot: stronger, faster, able to heal, and less emotional. The longer Reboots are dead, the less human they are when they return. Wren 178 is the deadliest Reboot in the Republic of Texas. Now seventeen years old, she serves as a soldier for HARC (Human Advancement and Repopulation Corporation).
Wren's favorite part of the job is training new Reboots, but her latest newbie is the worst she's ever seen. As a 22, Callum Reyes is practically human. His reflexes are too slow, he's always asking questions, and his ever-present smile is freaking her out. Yet there's something about him she can't ignore. When Callum refuses to follow an order, Wren is given one last chance to get him in line—or she'll have to eliminate him. Wren has never disobeyed before and knows if she does, she'll be eliminated, too. But she has also never felt as alive as she does around Callum.
