Hi Gordon! I just finished Ungifted and am starting Super gifted and I loved Ungifted! I was wondering if you knew anything about if there is going to be a movie/tv show adaptation for the book I think it would be really cool!

Thank you so much! -Lily

Hi, Lily,

SO glad you enjoyed UNGIFTED. Hoping SUPERGIFTED makes the same kind of impression, because I'm working on a third in the series, to be titled HYPERGIFTED. And you're one of the first people I've told about it.

As for a movie or TV show, that wouldn't be up to me. A film company has to take an interest, buy the film rights, and do the actual filming. So let's you and I keep a good thought, and maybe it will happen!

Thanks for posting. Happy reading. -----Gordon Korman-----

Thank you so much for responding I’m so excited for Hypergifted I can’t wait! I will let you know what I think of Supergifted and I can’t wait to read it!

Yes hopefully one day it will happen! It would make a great movie!

Also as well as Ungifted I have read a lot of your books and they are amazing! My favorite is by far Masterminds! Also I was wondering what you think the characters lives were like after the series took place. Thank you so much for all your books they never fail to amaze me!

Hyper gifted? When were you planning on telling me this, GK? No, forget about it. Seems cool though. Good luck.

Lots of luck and wishes,

Lily, I think Malik and Amber made a couple, and so did Eli and Tori. Their lives would probably be fraught with worry about being discovered, or about the story of Serenity, NM coming out and everyone knowing about them. But I like to think they would be happy. They would have no children, because I don't think clones are able to reproduce. And if they were ever discovered by the press or the government, I think they might go on the run again.

Come to think of it, that would make a great story! But I think I'll let them live private lives. For now.

And J.R., do you think I have no secrets at all? Yes, I'm about halfway through the story.

Dear GK,

No your fine I was kidding around. When I first started talking to you, I said to myself “I swear if you ask him one thing about future books or books he is writing, I will make you lose your soccer game tonight” I’m pretty good at persuading myself. The threats always work. A writer needs his/her’s secrets. Or else there’d be a million copycats everywhere.

Sincerely,

Webmaster J.R.

I agree 100% with Amber and Malik and Tori and Eli being couples. I was rooting for them throughout the whole series! It would make a great story! Thank you so much for responding!
