Project Summary
Red Rising is a feature film adaptation of Pierce Brown's 2014 sci-fi novel, now in development at Paramount Pictures. Francis Lawrence, known for directing the Hunger Games franchise, is attached to direct, with Justin Rhodes writing the screenplay. Lawrence and Cameron MacConomy will produce through their about:blank banner, alongside Francesco Goedhuis, while Brown serves as executive producer. The story takes place in a futuristic society where planets have been colonized and humanity is divided into a color-coded caste system. The project marks Paramount's latest literary adaptation, with Lawrence bringing his extensive experience in dystopian sci-fi to the material. This represents a fresh attempt to bring the popular book series to the screen after previous development efforts at other studios did not move forward.
