Josh Bratman at Immersive Pictures is attached to produce The Final Six at Sony, and Lauren Abrahams is overseeing for the studio. The high-concept hook touches on aspirational and relevant themes of environmentalism, global unity and leadership. The HarperCollins deal is the final piece to an unusual process in which a major studio bid on an unpublished book proposal, triggering a publishing scrap that wrapped last week - just in time for next month’s Chicago Book Fair.įinal Six imagines a present-day world under a first-of-its-kind coalition between the UN and the international space agencies, with a plot to send a team of six intrepid teenagers to create the first human settlement on Jupiter’s moon Europa. This is the manuscript that Deadline told you Sony acquired in a pre-emptive deal earlier this month after seeing only the few chapters that were available to read. Alexandra Monir’s upcoming novel The Final Six has completed a wild ride after heating bidding saw HarperCollins emerge to seal publishing rights to her high-concept YA book.
