Author V.E. Schwab, who will produce the film alongside Gerard Butler, Alan Siegel, and Danielle Robinson, asked her readers on Instagram not to say things like “They better not change/ruin/fuck up this thing I love.” She wrote, “Please remember, no one can change/ruin/fuck up my book. Because my book is my book. It is not undone. It is not erased. It is not a palimpsest, written over by a new iteration. The book will always be the book. The film will always be the film.”
