Original Final Destination Script to Be Turned into Novel

On a recent episode of the horror podcast The Movie Crypt, Jeffrey Reddick told hosts Adam Green and Joe Lynch that he plans on creating a novelization of his original draft of Final Destination, and we have some additional details here.

Reddick’s approach to the story is based on an idea he had for an X-Files spec script. He had planned the idea to center around Agent Scully’s brother dealing with the initial deadly premonition. In this case, Death causes them to be driven insane and commit suicide, instead of being murdered by what is seemingly accidents from manipulated objects.

The resulting intense draft is more psychological in nature; altered by James Wong and co-writer Glen Morgan to produce the resulting film.

Although fans worldwide watch Final Destination movies for their crazy death scenes, they should also be excited for this different take on the popular franchise.

Reddick, in partnership with Justin Marchert of Dumper Entertainment, is currently working on the novel.

You can purchase previous adaptations from Reddick at Amazon.
