‘Glee’ Star Chris Colfer’s Book Series ‘Land of Stories’ in Works as Warner Bros. Movie

As a passionate gamer, I’m super excited to dive into a fresh adventure with Warner Bros., as they embark on a new journey adapting the beloved book series penned by none other than Chris Colfer, former star of Glee! Can’t wait to see what this new chapter holds for us!

The production company has purchased the book series “The Land of Stories” by Colfer, with Phil Johnston on board to pen the screenplay.

Emma Watts introduced a particular piece of real estate to Warner Bros., with both Colfer and Watts taking on the role of producers. Meanwhile, Rob Weisbach is slated to oversee the production as an executive producer.

In “The Land of Stories,” twin siblings Alex and Conner Bailey find themselves mourning their late father’s death only to be whisked away into an enchanted storybook, where beloved fairy tales unfold as reality.

Johnston serves as the director for upcoming films like Netflix’s live-action adaptation of “The Twits” and Disney’s animated sequel “Ralph Breaks the Internet.“. His writing portfolio includes “Cedar Rapids“, “Wreck-It Ralph“, and “Zootopia“.

Deadline was first to report about the project.

More to come.
