There have been some rumblings about the possibility of Bill Myers' Blood of Heaven being made into a movie. In fact, Bill confirms the possibility (note: it's not definite) over at his blog. He says:
"Got wonderfully sidetracked from writing the novel the last couple weeks with a producer who asked me to turn my book, Blood of Heaven, into a screenplay."
He also describes the plot for those who haven't read it yet:
"The story is a powerful one where they find a couple drops of Christ's blood, genetically introduce it into a human to see what will happen. The fact that the human is a multiple murderer makes it a little more interesting."
Bill's last novel to be turned into a movie was The Wager, starring Randy Travis.
New from Jenkins Entertainment (Hometown Legend) is the movie Midnight Clear starring Stephen Baldwin. Coming to DVD on December 4th, this film was based on a short story by Jerry Jenkins (of Left Behind fame) and directed by his son Dallas Jenkins.
Dallas talked recently about some other new releases coming soon from Jenkins Entertainment:
We continue to develop "Mountain," based on the book, "The Man Who Moved a Mountain." This is our passion project and one that we desperately want to make by next summer.
We are also developing a movie based on Karen Kingsbury's book, "Moment of Weakness," for the Hallmark Channel. We had a great experience with Hallmark on our film, "Though None Go With Me" (also available on DVD).
