Isaac Marion's next book, The Overnoise, will be adapted into a film by Made Up Stories, which has acquired the rights, Deadline reported. The production company's heads, Bruna Papandrea and Steve Hutensky, will produce alongside Jeanne Snow and Claudia Park. This is the second collaboration between Marion and Papandrea, following the movie adaptation of Marion's Warm Bodies in 2013.
"Making a 'zombie romance' work on screen was an absurdly tall order, but Bruna sank her teeth into it and created a genuine classic," said Marion. "She's never been afraid to tackle unusual stories with unique and exciting challenges, so I'm thrilled to be working with her again to bring The Overnoise to life."
Made Up Stories commented: "We knew The Overnoise was special from the first page. We're thrilled to partner with Isaac again on this brilliant, emotionally resonant story about the cost of progress and the value of human connection. We can't wait to bring this powerful narrative to the screen."
