Re: Changing a Character for an Adaption

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not sure if anyone here besides me has read Tyler Dilts' books, but I've heard rumors that the movie rights for the first (A Kingdom of Infinite Space) have been sold and is currently in development under the title Signal Hill. Since it's a mystery series that steps a bit outside of genre formula boundaries, I can deal with a title change to make it more obvious that it's a mystery movie instead of something more literary derived. That said, if they don't keep Det. Tanaka in tact, I'll be rather pissed. True, Tanaka is a tough woman. She teaches martial arts when she's not wrangling with murders. However, if they don't show her toughness in the movie, it will take away from the moments when she is more empathetic and helping her professional partner (main character Danny). I feel the need to emphasize that they are strictly professional partners because there is a fair amount of ambiguity in the books about what exactly their relationship is. Anyway, point is, they can tweak any of the characters except Tanaka. If her characterization is changed, the whole adaptation will run off the rails at light speed.
