According to Deadline, Joe Ballarini’s children’s book series, A Babysitter’s Guide to Monster Hunting, is being developed into a family film at Netflix with Rachel Talalay set to direct.
The first film will be based on the first installment of the three-part series, and will (hopefully) branch out into the books sequels, A Babysitter’s Guide to Monster Hunting #2: Beats & Geeks and A Babysitter’s Guide to Monster hunting #3: Mission to Monster Island.
Ballarini will write the screenplay, while Walden Media and Montecito Pictures Company will produce alongside Ivan Reitman and Amie Karp.
Naia Cucukov, Tom Pollock, and Ilona Herzberg will executive produce.
