Anne McCaffrey's Dragonriders of Pern book series has garnered generations of fans. Now it's about to be translated for the screen by the screenwriter for Watchmen and X2, David Hayter.

According to Deadline,
producer Steve Hoban has been itching to make a Pern film forever. And
now David Hayter has been hired to write the script based on Dragonflight, the first book in McCaffrey's 22-book series.


I wasn't too impressed with The Watchmen movie. But I can't see how they can make Dragonflight dull. Here's hoping they do a good job on this.
