I understand there have been speculative “reports” online about supposed insider information concerning the show’s budget, casting, etc., etc. It will set the tone, style and pace for the entire show. As I’ve said before, I know this seems like it is taking forever, but we are laying the groundwork for a massive project, and it is absolutely critical that we get the first script correct.
Then, once everyone is satisfied with the script, we will hopefully get the green light to begin development. They may have their own notes for us to include. We are still working on the revisions to the pilot script, but we should be sending it to the top execs at Disney soon for them to weigh in. On the Hollywood front, there is not much new to report because the film industry takes a winter break from before Christmas until this week, so everything has been on hold. It was a really fun challenge to write in Italian, then figure out how to translate my own work into English! Also over the holidays, I wrote a very brief short story in Italian about Percy and Nico on a Christmas adventure in Florence for La Repubblica. In other news, I spent the holidays finishing up my latest manuscript (this one is not mythology-based) and it is now in the hands of my agents and editor, so we’ll see what happens! I will let you know when I can reveal more.
