The Example Has Been Optioned… Again.

Yes, the ongoing saga that is ‘the filming of The Example‘ has a new chapter.

After several false starts, people using the play script to get funding, meetings with various producers, all sorts of promises, and even one time when I believe the whole thing was filmed but never edited, The Example looks like it really will be a film soon.

Dean Codrington and Bravada Films have optioned The Example for twelve months and have asked me to write the screenplay.  Dean was the director on A4 to A3, which is set for its world premiere at the Newport Beach Film Festival in California later this month.  He did a fantastic job with the film adaptation of the musical which Simon Barlow and I wrote and I am quietly confident that he and his team will do an equally great job with The Example.

This ‘little play that could’ has already won a number of awards, been produced in five countries and been adapted into a comic book of the same name.

Next up; The Example action figures!
