As with any film or television adaptation of a book that I love, I watched the pilot of “The Magicians” with trepidation. After all, so many great stories are mutilated somewhere between the page and the screen, and I really, really didn’t want “The Magicians” to be one of them. Thankfully, it’s looking like the show is going to be amazing.
MuggleNet had the opportunity to step into the world of “The Magicians” which is soon to be a series on the Syfy channel.
MuggleNet caught up with the executive producers and writers of “The Magicians,” Sera Gamble and John McNamara, at NYCC, and several cast members.
So while my first loyalty may be to “Harry Potter”, I can’t hide the fact that “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” isn’t the only 2016 adaptation I’m looking forward to – I’m *almost* as excited for the book-to-television adaptation of Lev Grossman’s “The Magicians.”
