CHRISTINA HENDRICKS, EMILY WATSON IN WW1 'ANGEL MAKERS' MOVIE! 'ANIMORPHS', 'ROADSIDE PICNIC' SF BOOKS GET ADAPTATIONS! CHESTER SEE LEADS 'OVER THE TOP' SERIES AT ABC FAMILY

'ANGEL MAKERS' WW1 MOVIE
CASTS CHRISTINA HENDRICKS, EMILY WATSON AND MAX RIEMELT
A new historical movie for you and it already has a cast, a stellar one! As 'Deadline' reports Christina Hendricks, Emily Watson, Max Riemelt and Abbie Cornish have all joined WW1 drama THE ANGEL MAKERS! Jon Amiel is to direct the story, set in the Yorkshire Moors in 1917. Survival is key when the men leave to join the allied fight in France, leaving their wives to maintain the farms. At their disposal, an internment camp of German POWs, all too happy to offer up their services, ignite an air of dangerous romance. Affairs begin and lust blossoms into love as the women of Yorkshire Moors discover something far more powerful: independence. When the husbands return, everyone turns to Sarah Rigg (Christina Hendricks), the midwife and witch doctor at the heart of the village, to mix the potions that can save a life… or take it away.

NEW BOOK ADAPTATIONS
'ANIMORPHS' GETS A MOVIE  
Now, here's an interesting movie adaptation: Universal is planning on turning K.A. Applegate's bestselling series of novels ANIMORPHS into a movie! More than 50 novels in the series revolve around young people who come across a crashed alien spaceship. The dying alien gives them powers to transform into any animal they want. Using those powers the teenagers then fight against other aliens who have secretly invaded the planet disguised as humans. These books were previously adapted into a two season series over at Nickelodeon.
'ROADSIDE PICNIC' TV SERIES
Another adaptation, but this time a small screen one will be for beloved Russian sf novel ROADSIDE PICNIC from Arkady and Boris Strugatsky which is to be turned into TV series at WGN America! GAME OF THRONES director Alan Taylor is helming the story about an alien visitation to planet Earth, whose aftermath has led to the creation of “Zones” in the areas where the aliens had possibly landed. Such zones exhibit strange and dangerous phenomena not understood by humans, and contain artefacts with inexplicable, seemingly supernatural properties!
