Lionsgate announced today that multi-award winning actor, composer, rapper and writer Lin-Manuel Miranda, the creator and star of the smash Broadway musical “Hamilton,” is partnering with “The Kingkiller Chronicle” author Pat Rothfuss to serve as creative producer and musical mastermind of feature film and television series adaptations of the best-selling franchise book trilogy with an option to be involved in future stage productions as well.
Let me type that again just for the joy of it: Lin-Manuel Miranda is going to be helping us adapt ‘Kingkiller.’
Lin-Manuel Miranda said, “Pat Rothfuss’ ‘Kingkiller’ books are among the most read and re-read in our home.
Miranda and Rothfuss will be intimately involved in the development of the new characters and storylines explored in the TV show.
