This is definitely a day for adaptations! Warner Bros. has acquired the rights to The Adventures of Oscar Pill, the series of French youth novels written by Eli Anderson.
What’s also interesting about this project is that one of the producers behind the Harry Potter series, David Heyman, is set to produce the films through his HeyDay Films banner along with Jeff Clifford. So, it looks like we definitely have a new franchise.
Thanks to guys from Collider, here’s a little description:
“Oscar Pill is a very ordinary teenager until the day he discovers that he has the power to enter human bodies and he belongs to the order of “Médicus”. His mission is then to fight their enemies, the Pathologus. He will travel across five fabulous worlds of the human body to find each trophy to move to the next world.
He will also try to find the mysterious consequences of the death of his father, a great Medicus. In the first book in the series, Oscar learns that he is a Médicus, then he should go to Cumides Circle to continue his training. The start takes place in a remote prison in Siberia, the great master of Pathologus escaped through a ruse.”
Oscar Pill, who can travel through the human body…Not bad at all, and by the way, there are apparently five books in the series, so we’ll definitely have a chance to watch something great very soon. Let us know what you think, and as usual, stay tuned!
