Artemis Fowl Movie

[Charles Scholz]

Teaser Trailer

Next movie franchise?

[DerNils]

I read the first few books ages ago, and have to admit - that Trailer confused the heck out of me. I have NO idea what's going on there.
And acutually seeing Artemis as a young kid makes that franchise even less intersting to me. While reading, I could always imagine him older in my head, but seeing him in Person like that ...
Not for me, but maybe it will be great for my daughter in a few years.

Artemis is 12 in the first book.

[DerNils]

As I said, I AM aware that the casting is the right age. I just always fudged my inner view of him to be older, because 12 year olds don't make appealing protagonists to me.
That Trailer just made me realise that these movies will not be my thing, even if they are the best page to sscreen Adaption ever.

Disney’s ‘Artemis Fowl’ will skip theaters and go straight to streaming on Disney+

I've been expecting Disney would do this with a movie eventually, as a possible prelude to going full streaming instead of theaters. I've never read any of the books, and probably won't any time soon. However, I do recall the trailer looked interesting.
