Announced television adaptation

The rights to produce an adaptation of the book were optioned by Amblin Partners, a media company owned by Steven Spielberg. In mid-2018, it was announced that former Hillary Clinton (former U.S. secretary of state and 2016 presidential nominee) would serve as an executive producer of a television adaptation to be produced by Amblin Television. Plans were for the program to be carried by either a premium cable channel or a streaming media service. [5] In October 2020, it was announced that the series would air on The CW. It was also announced that it would be executive produced by both Weiss and Clinton, as well as Darryl Frank and Justin Falvey of Amblin Television. It was also announced that the production would be overseen by Angelina Burnett. [6] As of 2024, the series had not yet been filmed.
