Some quick news coming in via Variety, who are reporting that Disney has bought the rights to Jonathan Auxier’s The Night Gardener. The flick is to be developed by Sean Bailey’s Disney live-action group with Auxier adapting the script. Jim Whitaker will produce.
The book is Auxier’s follow-up to his widely popular Peter Nimble and His Fantastic Eyes, with this story following two orphan siblings who travel to work as servants at the creepy, crumbling Windsor estate, but neither the house nor its inhabitants are quite what they seem. Soon the children are confronted by a mysterious specter and an ancient curse that threatens their very lives.
More soon!
