Many attempts have been made over the past 15 years to launch an Artemis Fowl film franchise, but none have come to fruition just yet.
The eight-book Artemis Fowl series follows teenage genius and criminal mastermind Artemis as he comes up with a plot to extort gold from a group of Fairy People.
The saga was a huge financial success, a hit with critics, and has attracted a ever-growing following of fans.
The antihero runs into all kinds of magical creatures in his schemes, and his stance on the Fairies shifts significantly as he grows up.
