From Wikipedia: In July, 2006, Icon Productions, the film production company run by Mel Gibson, announced that it would adapt the book into a film based on A Great and Terrible Beauty, to be written and directed by Charles Sturridge. People have been rumored to be playing the characters, but author Libba Bray has confirmed that no one has been cast. Author Libba Bray discusses the current status of the film on her webpage. Bray recently announced that Icon relinquished the rights of the film, and so the film version of the book will not be made in any foreseeable circumstances. How could this brilliant series not have a movie? Must I name all the books that have been turned into a movie? Do join, so we could gather a number that will show them that we DO want so badly to have the film version of the book.

This is an amazing trilogy, and it has the ability to be epic if it is correctly portrayed!

This is one of the best young adult fantasy novels I have ever had the pleasure of reading, and it would make for a brilliant film adaptation if handled with care. Libba Bray has created an extraordinary story.

This might not be terribly popular, but it's because not many people know about it! Petitions like this are a godsend for publicity!

I read these back in high school and still think about them. Really wish someone would pick the rights back up and do it justice.

The Gemma Doyle trilogy is seriously underrated. If they made these into movies they would be huge like hunger games. Plz make it happen!!!
