Are they making a movie for the book Unwind by Neal Shusterman?

Question by Goldenfur productions: Are they making a movie for the book Unwind by Neal Shusterman?
I just finished this book only a few minutes ago and earlier i was online and found out that this book is possibly going to be turned into a movie. Is the book Unwind by Neal Shusterman really going to be a movie?

“Possibly going to be turned into a movie” is the right way to phrase it. There was an interview with Shusterman posted on a website called the-trades.com earlier this month and when they asked about the Unwind movie he said:

“…we have some pretty powerful producers attached to it. We’ve worked up a pitch, and we’ve been taking it to the top levels of all the studios — the VPs and Presidents of production –and pitching it and getting them very excited about it. The problem has been… You know, something like The Hunger Games, you can pitch that in one line: “A futuristic Survivor show where teenagers fight each other to the death.” In one line you can pitch that entire story. Try pitching Unwind in one line.”

He goes on to say that although they’ve gotten some interest, so far the final answer has always been “no”. He calls the experience “frustrating” so far.

There is a website put together by the producers he mentioned where you can get involved in contests and watch for updates on any progress:
