Scholastic Entertainment announces Animorphs feature film and graphic novel to launch October 6, 2020

The popular series, Animorphs, follows five teens (Jake, Marco, Cassie, Rachel, and Tobias) who can morph into any animal that they touch and fight aliens who have invaded Earth. Today we learned that the series of 54 books has inspired its first feature film production. Scholastic Entertainment will produce the movie with Royce Reeves Darby overseeing the script development.

In addition, Sholastics says it also has plans for a Animorphs graphic novel to launch on October 6, 2020. It will be written by Eisner-Award nominee Chris Gine.

The books had already been adapted into a television series by Nickelodeon in 1998.
