Movie Option Expires

Bad news, folks. Despite the best of efforts, C-Squared was unable to find backing for a Nightrunner project. I am, of course, disappointed, but this is a common outcome for these things. That doesn't mean there may not be another try in the future, but for now, Alec and Seregil remain on the page.

Awwww. I second the anime. That would be cool too.

Awww, too bad. Hopefully soon!

Speaking of a Nightrunner film - I'm not sure if you've seen the BBC's updated version of Sherlock Holmes, Sherlock (2010), which just aired as part of PBS's Masterpiece Mystery series in the US? It struck me that the actor playing Sherlock Holmes, Benedict Cumberbatch, might make a good Seregil *points to icon*. Though I guess he may be a bit too tall and lanky. For more pics, I can recommend cumberbatchfans. :)

I LOVE the new Sherlock series! I had reservations on the updating, but they did a brilliant job of capturing the characters. I really like Watson in this version, who often gets short shrift. i thought the same aobut Benedict. Lanky is good and height can be dealt with in film magic.

Heee, isn't it great?! I hadn't heard of it, but then happened to zap into the press conference scene of the first episode on the BBC. Rupert Graves caught my eye, so I kept watching. I'm SO glad that I did! I agree, Watson is fabulous (let alone Sherlock, oh my), and the chemistry between Martin and Benedict is perfect. If only the wait for the second season wasn't so long!

That incomprehensible keysmash translates roughly as: "I JUST FINISHED WATCHING SHERLOCK AND I LOVE IT SO MUCH AND I MAY HAVE TO STEAL THE CRAP OUT OF THAT ICON IF YOU DON'T MIND." Roughly. I reached the end of the series while on a bus back to where I go to school and reacted with quite audible horror when it ended. I'm sure the other bus people were a little alarmed.

I actually had the exact same thought about Benedict Cumberbatch, especially because of his eyes, his eyes are the eyes the Seregil in my mind has. 0.o

Tough luck, but that's showbiz! One of my friends is going into film as her major, so maybe in a few years when she graduates and has some connections there'll be an option again!

And somewhat off-topic, but your panel at Yaoicon was amazing, thank you so much for coming and reading to us! It was one of the highlights of my weekend. ♥

I totally enjoyed Yaoi Con and you folks were a terrific audience! Wish we hadn't run out of books. I had no idea so many people would show up!

[dracoprncs1310]

Wow, you ran out? I'm so glad I managed to get one! Haven't had a chance to read it because of schoolwork, but looking forward to cracking it open this weekend.

Ah man. ;_; I was really hoping it would happen too. Well, at least we still will always have them in the books, and you never know what the future might hold! =)
