I seem to recall reading something, somewhere, that the script was originally going to focus more on the adults, because Card didn't think they'd be able to find a child actor who could pull off Ender with enough to skill to carry the story. But that either the star wars kid, or the 6th sense kid came into the picture and Card decided that they could pull it off, so he put it back the way it was.
from here
"However, nothing whatsoever will be done about casting or hiring until after the script is finished. The film's release will not be scheduled until the script is fully agreed upon AND the director has finished his next film. So it will certainly be at least two years and more likely three, maybe even four years before the film is released."
So who knows what will happen.
Oh, and this other little tid bit:
"The upshot is that all are agreed on a fairly detailed outline of a film that combines Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow in a way that will combine the most important elements of both. Together, the stories make one terrific film.
To fans of the book, OSC offers this reminder: "The movie can't show everything from either book, let alone both. So there will almost certainly be scenes and even plot threads that you cared about which are not present in the film. Fortunately, the books still exist, and so readers will be able to experience those scenes for many years in the future." |
