WB Nabs "Dragonriders Of Pern"

Warner Bros. has picked up the screen rights to all twenty-two novels in author Anne McCaffrey's epic fantasy novel series  "Dragonriders of Pern" says Deadline.


First published in 1968, the stories center on a group of warriors and their telepathic dragons who try to save their home planet of Pern from a deadly airborne threat, a rain of spores that hails from the orbit of the Red Star.

No screenwriter is currently attached to adapt the work at this time,  David Hayter drafted a script for an earlier incarnation back in 2011 when Copperheart Entertainment, Dark Hero Studios and Angry Films had the rights.
