Spiderwick Chronicles isn’t moving forward.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Disney+ is cancelling the high-profile young adult adaptation The Spiderwick Chronicles in the latest example of its cost-cutting and content-removal measures. Based on the bestselling books by Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black, The Spiderwick Chronicles is described as a contemporary American gothic coming-of-age story.
Deadline now confirms that Disney+ is not moving forward with its live-action television show adaptation of The Spiderwick Chronicles. The eight-episode series, a co-production between Paramount Television Studios and 20th Studios, is completed and will be shopped by Paramount to other possible buyers.
The Spiderwick Chronicles Cancellation Signals A Shift For Disney+ The news comes after Disney+ recently cancelled the well-received reboot Doogie Kamealoha, M.D., but the decision not to move forward with The Spiderwick Chronicles points to the fact that the streaming service is "reassessing its live-action strategy," according to the reporting.
Disney+, and its associated divisions, will focus more on Disney's own properties moving forward. The reporting from Deadline cites the upcoming Percy Jackson series as a prime example, as the books are published by Disney Hyperion in the US. Exceptions will still be made, however, such as for the upcoming Goosebumps adaptation from Sony TV, and the high-profile new Doctor Who episodes from the BBC.
The change in direction could be seen in how Disney+ has removed many of its titles that are not directly related to Star Wars and Marvel, with the Willow series standing out as perhaps the most notable casualty of the trend. The Spiderwick Chronicles is the latest, though there remains a chance that the fantasy show could find a new home, whether on Paramount+ or elsewhere.
