A “Fourth Wing” TV show based on Rebecca Yarro’s bestselling fantasy book series is in the works at Amazon MGM Studios.
Amazon and Michael B. Jordan’s Outlier Society, which has an overall deal with the studio, have acquired the rights to not only “Fourth Wing,” but also its sequel, “Iron Flame,” due out November 7, and the three remaining planned books in Yarros’ “Fourth Wing” universe, “The Empyrean” book series, from Entangled Publishing.
Yarros is a non-writing executive producer on the Fourth Wing television series alongside Liz Pelletier for Entangled Publishing.
According to the official logline for the “Fourth Wing” TV series, “Enter the brutal world of Basgiath War College, where there is only one rule: Graduate or die. Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail expected to live a quiet life among books and history. Now the Commanding General – her tough-as-nails mother – has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: Dragon Riders. If the fire-breathing beasts don’t kill her, one of her fellow riders just might. Suspense, action, romance, and dragons combine in a fast-paced fantasy adventure from NYT bestselling author Rebecca Yarros.
“Fourth Wing” debuted on May 2 and quickly gained immense popularity on TikTok (1 billion views to date across all related hashtags) and then rocketed onto the New York Times bestseller list, where it spent 25 weeks, including 13 weeks at #1.
Yarros is repped by Grandview and The Fury Agency. Entangled is repped by Independent Artist Group (formerly APA) and Alliance Rights Agency.
