Summary
AMistbornmovie would be a welcome addition to the fantasy genre — butif it does n’t meet one important shape , I ’m not concerned . Brandon Sanderson’sMistbornbooksare some of the biggest fantasy novel out there , and they ’re well - fit for adaptations . Sanderson never holds back on the activeness , and that make his story finger cinematic . It ’s easygoing to imagineMistborn ’s best momentsmaking their way to the screen . And aMistbornmovie was reportedly in the works , though it ’s unclear if that ’s still the vitrine .
The film was one of the many fantasymovies stuck in evolution hell , but Sanderson bring out that the project is " on pause " in 2023 ( viaWinter Is Coming ) . With that in thinker , it ’s hard to say if theMistbornmovie is still come about — and if so , whether it will come from the same studio . Sanderson seems up - to - escort and regard with the undertaking , but his role is n’t fully clean . With the on-going delays and possible electrical switch - ups , it could also change . And if there ’s one thing I know for sure , it ’s thatI do n’t want aMistbornmovie without the source intemperately call for .
A Mistborn movie would want excellent cast to work , and get Vin right would be extremely important . Who could spiel her in an adaptation ?

If Brandon Sanderson Isn’t Involved In The Mistborn Movie, I Don’t Want It
AMistbornmovie is something I ’ve require for a long time , butan adaptation of Sanderson ’s books would n’t work without the writer ’s involvement . Adaptations have gotten upright about this in recent eld , with writers like George R.R. Martin and Rick Riordan serve as executive producers on the television adaptation of their work . This ensures that they have some say creatively , and these authors are even involved in script writing forGame of ThronesandPercy Jackson . While movies function differently , I think Sanderson needs to participate in the decision - making for aMistbornmovie .
I ’d detest to see unncessary changes made toMistborn , and having Sanderson heavily involve on the creative ending will guarantee this does n’t happen .
Movie adaptations are often hit or miss , and their success largely bet on how close they are to the source material . I ’d detest to see unneeded change made toMistborn , and induce Sanderson heavily involved on the creative end will ascertain this does n’t happen . The author will also be able to extend suggestions when changesarenecessary , which will keepMistborn ’s adaptation from sense too different from the origin material . Given how complex Sanderson ’s Word of God are , it ’d be easy to lack the mark without his guidance .

Brandon Sanderson’s World & Magic System Must Be Handled Well
The mankind andmagic organization draft in theMistbornbooksare too complex to adapt without Sanderson ’s assistant . AMistbornmovie already has its work cut out for it when it comes to explain Allomancy , Feruchemy , and the political setup of the Final Empire . Establishing these things in a movie ’s runtime will be hard piece of work , and have a creative team that is n’t inform could make matters even worse . Even well - intendedwriters could miss the German mark if they are n’t familiar with the source stuff . Having Sanderson around will ensure the motion-picture show does n’t cut corner or get important world - building constituent wrong .
Sanderson ’s involvement would also ensure that the fictitious character are properly conform , asMistbornhas a decent - sized cast with varying levels of complexness . Nailing Vin , Kelsier , and Elend will be essential to winning over viewers — both those who have read the books and those new to the dealership . Given that Sanderson create these character reference , he ’ll know how to get their shade across in a movie adaptation . Without him , important aspects of their personalities and journeys could be overlook .
Brandon Sanderson Is The Key To Getting A Mistborn Movie Right
I Don’t Want Another Vision Of His Story
Given the ledger ' complexities — and the many example of adaptation that veered too far from their rootage material — I conceive Sanderson is the key to contract aMistbornmovie right . Too many Hollywood production attempt to make a tale their own , ignore the source material and its devotee in the operation . undertaking that keep the original Maker involved seem less likely to have this problem , andMistborndeserves to be well - get and successful in theater of operations .
Given the books ' complexities — and the many examples of adaptations that veered too far from their beginning material — I believe Sanderson is the key to getting aMistbornmovie right .
AMistbornfilm could also take to a greater movie dealership that adaptsSanderson ’s entire Cosmere . As many of his rule book are connect , it ’s not a stretch to hope this will happen . It would certainly make fantasy floor as big as superhero motion-picture show — but it would take a spate of effort to get right . Such a cinematic universe would need a goodish budget , solid cast , and charge Divine . It would also need Sanderson ’s amour , which should start withMistborn . If the flick adaptation does n’t even get that rightfield , I can do without it .
