The Hollywood Reporter has revealed that Disney has snapped up the movie rights to Charlie N. Holmberg’s YA fantasy trilogy The Paper Magician, and has tapped Allison Shearmur (The Hunger Games, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) to produce the big screen adaptation.
The story “centers on Ceony Twill, a young girl who is a student at the Tagis Praff School for the Magically Inclined. In this world where magicians animate manmade materials, she is disappointed that she has been demoted to learn paper magic despite her dreams of working with metal. But when an all-powerful evil magician rises and her mentor’s life is on the line, she must tap into the hidden potential of her new powers.”
The Paper Magician was published in September 2014, and was followed by the second instalment The Glass Magician in November 2014 and the final chapter The Master Magician in June of last year.
