Bestseller ‘The Last Animal’ Acquired by Walden Media and Big Beach for Film Adaptation; Ry Russo-Young to Direct (EXCLUSIVE)
Bestselling novel "The Last Animal" has been acquired for feature film adaptation by Walden Media and Big Beach, with Ry Russo-Young set to direct.
The discovery sends mother and daughters from the slopes of Siberia to the shores of Iceland to an exotic animal farm in Italy, resulting in the birth of a creature that could change the world — or at least their family. “’The Last Animal’ will bring audiences on a wild and unexpected journey with a mother and her two girls as they courageously confront themselves as well as creatures past and present who have something important to reveal,” said Ben Tappan, president of production at Walden. Big Beach’s Tim Foley and Michael Clark added they had the “best time” working with Russo-Young on the upcoming docuseries and “can’t wait to re-team with her to bring this magical story to life with Walden.”
