Walden Media Taps Michael Medico To Direct Feature Adaptation Of Robbie Couch’s Queer YA Novel ‘The Sky Blues’


Novel 'The Sky Blues' is being turned into a film that Michael Medico will direct for Walden Media, Deadline can exclusively reveal.

Bt just when Sky considers skipping town altogether, his classmates give him a reason to fight back in a coming-of-age story about bravery, being yourself and embracing a chosen family that supports you through everything. “‘The Sky Blues’ is a triumphant coming of age story that celebrates the universal themes of courage and overcoming adversity that are at the heart of Walden Media’s DNA,” Tappan told Deadline. Up next for release is the indie studio’s Apple TV+ limited series Manhunt, about the hunt for John Wilkes Booth in the aftermath of Abraham Lincoln’s assassination, which premieres March 15.
