Paramount Pictures has acquired screen rights to Stoneheart, the first installment of a fantasy trilogy about ancient statues that come to life in London, Variety reported. Scott Rudin and Lorenzo di Bonaventura will produce, and Charlie Fletcher will write the script from his novel, which will be published in the United States by Hyperion and by the Hachette-owned Hodder Children's imprint in the United Kingdom.
In Stoneheart, a shy 12-year-old on a class trip to London's war museum knocks the head off a stone dragon and quickly finds himself menaced by stone serpents that adorned the museum and have come to life. The kid is saved by the bronze statue of a soldier.
Fletcher said he is already halfway through writing the second novel and will deliver the adaptation of Stoneheart later this year.
Dierna note: Gargoyles come to life and menace a kid... wonder if one of these things looks like Demona...
