A large portion of the series revolves around the fact Neil is on the run and presents as multiple people. I tried to incorporate something sports related at first but that wasn’t working and didn’t seem serious enough so instead I thought about portraying identity. So I’m not really sure who I would choose myself, Jeff Davis is probably the top of my list but also, I’m not sure? Some gay directors I can see doing good with this are John Krokidas (Kill Your Darlings) and Jeff Davis as mentioned earlier. I also think the show really should have a gay man direct it if possible, because I think not only would it add some more nuance to the relationship, it’s also important the perspectives of the community come through. the sexual assault one) in Skam and that makes me nervous. Than, of course, Julie Andem came to mind since she did Skam and I’m set on the web series idea, but honestly I don’t like what she did with some plot lines (ie. On the other, everyone cites Yuri On Ice as a show similar to The Foxhole Court’s concept which is true and I’d love a kind of narration similar to what Yuri has so Sayo Yamamoto who directed that is an option. Teen Wolf’s developer Jeff Davis stood out to me because the lacrosse scenes are Ideal and want I want for the Exy scenes. I had the hardest time deciding on this because there is a few options for me. Hulu tends to be a *little* too serious but Netlix has some good teen shows that find that balance between serious and kind of ridiculous like The Foxhole Court. I can’t think of any distributor that could do it better. The Foxhole Court is from Neil’s perspective and the fact he A: doesn’t know most of the teams secrets and B: they don’t know his, super lends itself to this web series format.ĭirector & Distributor: Okay, I would love to see Netflix on this. It’s something Skam did really well since the clips were only ever in one characters point of view but it was implied action existed outside the clip. The web series helps to conceal and keep information from viewers. Also, The Foxhole Court has lots of ongoing elements of plot which are confusing because they’re never adequately explained until the end. Maybe this sounds too wild, but I think it’d be really fun. ![]() I think taking these sorts of time slots and actually uploading the clips live time would be super fun, and would lend itself to the sport aesthetic since watching sports is a lot of sitting down at a certain time to do it. At least in the first book, whichI just read it’s something like this: “Now I have class then I’m meeting for training at 3pm”, “I need to meet at 9pm with the upperclassmen”, “our game is at 7pm”. Lots of The Foxhole Court’s action is broken down into specific scenes and moments. Similar to Skam, except maybe longer clips. One thing I would really, really think would be cool to see with The Foxhole Court is a make it like a web series. I have seen suggestions it be animated, which would be fun, but I think it’d work better live action to really capture the exy scenes. I also think I would like this live action. Also, if it was a series there could potentially be seasons after the ending of the book, about the new team that Neil captains. One thing I love about the books is the really long character and romance arcs that develop across all three books and I think that type of arc lends itself best to a tv adaptation rather than film. ALSO, A SPOILER WARNING FOR THE FOXHOLE COURT SERIES Though I will try to keep spoils to a minimum.įormat: TV Series. So I thought about a movie for The Foxhole Court but I’m 100% sure a TV series would work better. Just !! This isn’t gonna be That Deep okay. The casting will be totally just a dream cast situation and therefore not everything I wish will / could possibly happen. Standard disclaimer: This series is just for fun and I obviously have no involvement in film or anything like that. ![]() Also, I just finished rereading the first book so it’s fresh in my mind! Anyway this is gonna be a long one so STRAP IN. Last week I did Six of Crows and this week we’re doing The Foxhole Court! This was requested to me a couple times and I am more than happy to deliver the goods since you all KNOW I love this series. If this is you’re first time here – this is a blog series I started in which I discuss what my perfect adaptation for various books would look like. ![]() If you missed that, be sure to read it right here. It’s round two of Film Adaptation Friday, the series I started last week.
