Morgan Kane asked David Wong:

Whilst the JDatE movie was good, it was obviously limited by the fact it was, y'know, a movie. Have you ever considered a web series, etc. to get more details from the books in? And, on the subject of adaptations, can we ever expect a JDate or Futuristic Violence graphic novel/broadway musical/whatever?

David Wong It's very natural to wonder that, especially now that fans have seen how HBO is turns books into series with huge budgets. But then you realize that even then, they make radical changes (like Game of Thrones) because even with unlimited time, there are things that just aren't practical to shoot due to budget limitations, or that don't work in a visual medium (where an entire conflict plays out inside the thoughts of a character). What you seem to be suggesting is a series where I'd have creative control, but even then it'd require tremendous amounts of money to film that probably couldn't be recovered - it's a pretty high concept book.
