A novelization of Damsel is all set to release ahead of the Millie Bobby Brown fantasy film. Find out more about the novel and the film.

“Treasure hunt for true fans”- What Do We Know About the Novelization of ‘Damsel’ Starring Millie Bobby Brown?

Millie Bobby Brown could be the official mascot for Netflix. With back-to-back
successes of Stranger Things and Enola Holmes, the young actress is proving to
be quite the lucky charm for the streaming giant. Apart from the upcoming Enola
sequel, another Netflix original film starring Brown is all set to grace our
screens. We are, of course, talking about Juan Carlos Fresnadillo’s fantasy
film, Damsel.



The film archives are up to the brim with movie adaptations of comic books,
scriptures, and novels. It is refreshing to see filmmakers and authors mix it up
a little. Alongside the film’s premiere on Netflix, fans get a bonus as a Damsel
novel written by New York Times best-selling author Evelyn Skye.

NOVELIZATION OF THE MILLIE BOBBY BROWN STARRER DAMSEL

Evelyn Skye is best known for her young adult novels like The Crown’s Game,
Circle of Shadows, and their sequels. As a joint venture with Random House
Worlds and Netflix, the creator commissioned Skye for the novelization of the
film Damsel. The film stars Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown
[http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/millie-bobby-brown]. While the fantasy flick was
announced back in 2020, it only wrapped up production a few months ago. As the
film completes post-production, the book will premiere before the fantasy movie
takes the stage.

The film’s creative team gave Evelyn access to an early draft of the film
written by screenwriter Dan Mazeau. That means she was involved with the film
from the very beginning. In an exclusive statement to Hollywood Reporter, Skye
delved
[https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/lifestyle/arts/damsel-movie-netflix-evelyn-skye-novel-1235241137/]
into the making of the novel.

“Both the novel and the movie may stem from the same origin, but they are also
each their own unique works of art,” illustrated the best-selling novelist.

Granted, the film and the novel will have identical characters and
world-building, but there will be subtle nuances in both media that will be
distinct.

Calling it “a unique, collaborative partnership,” Evelyn shared how open the
process was. Just as she got her hands on the screenplay drafts, the filmmakers
had access to her manuscripts.

“We could riff off each other’s ideas, building details from the novel into the
movie and vice versa while also preserving our own versions of the story in our
respective mediums,” explained the author.

According to Skye, the film and the novel will be a “treasure hunt for true
fans.” While it will not be easy, if anyone could find even the slightest of
differences, it would be the eagle-eyed fans. 


WHAT IS THE NETFLIX ORIGINAL FILM DAMSEL ABOUT?

The narrative of Damsel follows Millie Bobby Brown as Elodie. Born and brought
up in the relatively poor and famine-stricken land of Inophe, her life changes
when a marriage proposal from the wealthy realm of Aurea could provide solace to
her homeland. As she accepts to be the new Aurean princess, she unravels the
darkness of the elusive realm only to find herself in grave danger.
