“But the freshness of the world and the characters in ‘The Devils’ finally got me off my butt to buy one of his books and partner with him to bring it to the screen,” he also added.
“I can’t wait to dig into this as I wind down on ‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’. It will be a joyful new challenge for me to bring these indelible characters to life,” he concluded.
