Have you heard a rumor that a book is in the process of being adapted? Know of an adaptation that's coming soon?

The ones I can think of are:

• A Monster Calls,
  written by Patrick Ness
• Me Before You,
  written by Jojo Moyes
• The Girl on the Train,
  written by Paula Hawkins
• The Circle,
  written by Dave Eggers

Also, according to this post here, Ready Player One, written by Ernest Cline, and The Bone Clocks, written by David Mitchell, are either happening, or rumored.

Thank you, @"Gannon", and @"v_a_redwood", for finally forcing me to get off my Duff to start this thread
It's been bugging me lately, anyway

Attention!
This is not a thread to discuss movies that have been released.
It is also not a thread to list which books you'd like to see adapted.
There are other threads that focus on those aspects.
This is only for adaptations that are already being done, or are rumored.
Thank you.

Before I Fall-Lauren Oliver (supposedly 2016)
Six Years-Harlan Coben
Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children-Ransom Riggs
Sister-Rosamund Lupton
Where'd You Go, Bernadette?-Maria Semple

The Bride Collector by Ted Dekker

New adaptations of The Jungle Book, and Tarzan.

I've seen the trailers for both, and they look interesting.

Now I know why they have been using Tarzan in those Geico commercials. Promotion.

I have always wanted the Dark Tower series to be made into a movie or tv series. Great casting as well. Can't wait.

That will certainly be interesting. I hope they can pull it off.

Speaking of Stephen King I heard they are scheduled to make a new version of IT.

I heard that as well, and I don't think they could top Tim Curry as Pennywise (he put me off clowns for good). But I think they could improve on the original movie in other ways.

I agree. Just his voice gave me the chills!

A movie based on Inferno by Dan Brown will be released this year in October.
Fallen by Lauren Kate - sometime this year
