EXCLUSIVE: Fox and producer John Davis have acquired feature rights to Myra McEntire’s debut novel Hourglass. Published by Egmont, the novel is catching on with a youthful female demographic. It’s a time-slip romance about a teen girl plagued by visions of the past, who meets a handsome stranger who can see the future. Together they travel through time and find action, adventure and romance. Davis will produce, and Magnet Management’s Brandy Rivers and Mitch Solomon will be exec producers. The acquisition was made from Davis’ discretionary fund.


How does John Davis get to keep making movies? He is the worst of the worst!
Fantastic read, a really original piece on Time Travel. I picked it up as a beach read after hearing friends talk about it and was very pleasantly surprised. It’s not your typical just for teen fare.
Translation: Fox passed.
Sorry, FOX, but The Girl Who Leapt Through Time already did it.
@D.Z. Well TGWLTT is animation, not live action, so there is still that there, that Hourglass can do with actors and the completely different plot to make that movie and not what TGWLTT did in their ANIMATED movie.
