Wellmania: Misadventures in the Search for Wellness might not sound like a book to inspire a streaming series adaptation. But the autobiographical comic self-help novel by Brigid Delaney sparked with Australian comedian and actor Celeste Barber.

Judy Bloom’s seminal Are You There, God? It’s Me, Margaret is one of those books pretty much everyone read around the age of 10 to 14, ever since it was published in the 1970s.

And then everything is different.” The series stars Auliʻi Cravalho as the central teenager in the story, with Toni Collette as her mother.

The 10-episode series is expected to debut in the spring of 2023 on Prime Video.

Alice Walker’s 1982 novel The Color Purple was a Pulitzer Prize winner for fiction when it debuted, and the 1985 film by Steven Spielberg based on it turned Whoopi Goldberg and Oprah Winfrey into A-list stars. Twenty years later, in 2005, the story was reconceived as a musical that took home the Tony Award for Best Actress in a Musical in 2005, and again in 2015 when it was revived with Cynthia Ervio in the starring role of Celie. Now the movie version of that musical (with Steven Spielberg and Oprah producing) will hit theaters with Fantasia in the Celie role Goldberg once played.

The Color Purple will debut in theaters on Dec. 20, 2023.
