It's going to be more YA than Animal Farm already is lmao

"So, I wrote it. He had a very clear idea of the tone he wanted, and he wanted the central dynamic that's not in the book between the kind of Napoleon, bad pig and a younger pig who kind of gets corrupted through the system and then pulls out of it. I thought that was a really good structure, and so he developed it with me, and then I just wrote. It's a bit updated because, obviously, the book was written in the ‘40s, so if you were to update that exactly to what it was, it would feel a bit dated. So, I updated it a bit and made it more darkly comic than the book is. The book is comic, but it's serious. I'm excited for people to see it. I think it's going to be awesome. It's been a passion project of his for a long time."

How many times can these morons remake Battle Royale but in Hunger Games style where it's actually cool and good to be da dystopian hero despite things never changing?

We have to keep updating our fairy tales for 2020's coddled children, 1940's coddled children are whole ass adults in comparison. Very Disney.
