According to The Hollywood Reporter, Apple TV has closed an “unprecedented deal” to secure the rights to Sanderson’s Cosmere – an interconnected fictional literary universe comprising 24 novels, several series, graphic novels, short stories and novellas. He also discussed his reasons for choosing Apple TV, explaining that the streamer wants to be “a true partner” and that he feels “they really get what I want to do” offering the right levels of approvals and control over the adaptations. Blue Marble, who previously produced Apple TV+ series Pachinko, is set to executive produce the television adaptation. As studios increasingly turn to popular literary adaptations, this unprecedented deal could signal a shift in how authors and studios collaborate.
