This week, Publishers Marketplace revealed that Lionsgate scooped up acquisition rights for all nine volumes of Jacqueline Carey's beloved high fantasy series Kushiel's Legacy. At the time, it is unclear if Lionsgate is planning a film franchise or looking to bring the series to a cable channel as a series in the vein of Game of Thrones or Outlander or The White Queen, which all had successful leaps from page to screen.
The newsletter listed Lionsgate Executive Vice President of Television Business Affairs as producer.
Social media lit up with news of the acquisition, with fans recounting their love of their series and hoping that it will ultimately become a television series and bring more fans to the franchise.
