Gene Luen Yang’s National Book Award finalist—a graphic novel about three very different, seemingly unrelated characters—has been a beloved favorite of readers since its publication in 2006. Now, the fable comes to Disney+ in a star-studded new adaptation on May 24. It’s just one of many upcoming adaptations worth reading before watching; here are three more on our radar! |
More upcoming adaptations to keep an eye out for: |
| City on Fire | While the new TV series updates the setting to 2003 NYC, Garth Risk Hallberg’s novel is set in the NYC of ‘77 within the exclusive confines of high society and the gritty joys of the heyday of CBGBs. Read the book before watching to see how surprisingly similar those two years were in different ways. | Where to watch |

|
| Shooting Stars | LeBron James and Buzz Bissinger’s book traced James’ life and basketball skills during his high school years playing with his three best friends at a predominantly white Catholic school. Now the book comes to life starring real-life basketball sensation Mookie Cook as James; the film streams June 2. | Add to watchlist |

|
| The Boogeyman | Stephen King’s original short story was first published in book form in 1978—now, it becomes part of the recent cottage industry of high-profile King adaptations. But as always, reading King is a joy unto itself, even apart from the jolt of fear at seeing his horrors come alive. In theaters June 2. | Add to watchlist |
