From Alliances With Emily Henry and A24 to Splashy ‘BookTok’ Acquisitions, How Lyrical Media Is Writing a New Story in TV, Film and Even Gaming and Comics


Lyrical Media chief Alex Black and his team break down upcoming film and TV projects based on popular books.

Sellers says the “Funny Story” script “is coming along truly so well,” but it’s actually just one of many high-profile projects set up at Lyrical, which has its eyes on expanding across film, TV, gaming and comics. Founded by Black in 2021, Lyrical has released Neon’s “How to Blow Up a Pipeline” (its debut film) and “Bruiser,” its first collaboration with Ryder Picture Company, which landed at Hulu. Sellers added: “A lot of it is just born out of, this is the stuff that, if we didn’t all work in film, I think we’d be reading, watching, listening to in our own free time, anyways, which I think makes it easier to just always, know what’s new, what’s fresh, what’s exciting.”
