A few things Gaiman, one thing not

Neil Gaiman will be writing the script for an English-language film adaptation of Journey to the West. This sounds like it should be very fun, indeed. There might also be some Guillermo del Toro in the mix, hurrah.

At first when I read the news I also thought that this might be the project that Gaiman’s been alluding to during his extended travels in China these past couple years, but I suspect that there’s still something else (or maybe several somethings else) to come out of that.

  1. American Gods movie: Do Not Want. Unless, bizarrely, they cast Vin Diesel as Shadow. I could totally see that.

    The Tiptree winner looks awesome. Another book to add to my wishlist…
