Neil Gaiman and Henry Selick Reunite for 'The Ocean at the End of the Lane' Adaptation

The creators of 'Coraline' are developing a new film project described as a thematic companion to their iconic animated movie.

  • Selick is shopping a 35-page treatment and concept art to studios like Laika and ShadowMachine.
  • The story follows a man revisiting his hometown and uncovering eerie childhood memories.
  • Selick describes the film as 'almost a sequel' to 'Coraline,' with a monstrous mother entering our world.
  • Plans for the adaptation come as 'Coraline' celebrates its 15th anniversary with a 3D re-release.
  • Selick also aims to revive his long-dormant project 'The Shadow King' as a graphic novel.
