Disney Branded Television is developing House of Secrets, an action-adventure fantasy series from Chris Columbus and his 26th Street Pictures partners, Michael Barnathan and Mark Radcliffe. Harry Potter and Home Alone filmmaker Columbus co-authored the middle-school book series with the late Ned Vizzini.
The Disney+ project revolves around siblings Brendan, Eleanor and Cordelia Walker, who aren’t pleased when their family relocates to a creepy Victorian house once owned by an occult novelist, Denver Kristoff. By the time the Walkers realize that their new neighbor has sinister plans for them, they’re trapped in the magical house, traveling through the fantastical intertwined universes of Kristoff’s novels.
“Chris, Michael and Mark tell stories that resonate with multiple audiences, across generations and genres that deliver a sense of magic and wonderment through definitional characters,” said Ayo Davis, EVP Creative Development and Strategy at Disney Branded Television, who is overseeing the project.

Be More Chill, the Joe Iconis musical with a road-to-Broadway story nearly as surprising as its sci-fi teen comedy plot, has posted an Aug. 11 closing notice. The musical at the Lyceum Theatre will have played 30 previews and 177 performances when it swallows its final Squip.
“Pride massively understates what everyone at Be More Chill feels for this show,” producers Jerry Goerhing and Mike Mitri said in a statement. “Every step in our journey has been special and one-of-a-kind – just like every member of our company, creative team, and crew, and each fan who has supported us. Our time at the Lyceum Theatre has been a true honor and a joy. We are so excited to have been able to touch the hearts of our diverse audiences and hope to watch the show’s continued influence grow in years to come.”

What’s that joyful, rowdy, roof-raising noise shaking things up on Broadway with the highest decibel count around? It’s Be More Chill, a rock-the-house teen musical phenom looking to get in on the action being generated by Dear Evan Hansen, Mean Girls and The Prom. The strange thing is that Be More Chill almost died in vitro. When the show first tested the waters at a nowhere theater in Jersey four years ago, the critics shot it down. But the bastards couldn’t kill it. When the show moved...

When composerlyricist Joe Iconis and bookwriter Joe Tracz's hard-rocking, super-charged and very well written science fiction musical comedy Be More Chill ended its month-long premiere engagement at Two River Theater in Red Bank, New Jersey less than four years ago, the thought of a Broadway production may have seemed as far-fetched and phantasmagoric as the plot of its source material, Ned Vizzini's same-named 2004 novel.

To quote a song from the tenacious – and tenaciously enjoyable – Be More Chill, the Joe Iconis-Joe Tracz musical arrives on Broadway with just enough of an “upgrade” from last summer’s Off Broadway staging to fill its new home and the greater expectations that come with the move. The costumes, the scenic design, the projections of computer gimcrackery and video game effects all seem buffed, beglittered and amped up just enough to suit Broadway demands without swamping the heart and humor that caught everyone’s attention in the first place.
By now, you might have heard about Be More Chill, if only for its unusual route to Broadway’s Lyceum Theatre (where it opens tonight under the swift and generous direction of Stephen Brackett).

“Be More Chill” (previews begin February 13; opens March 10)
In this musical adaptation of Ned Vizzini’s 2004 novel of the same name, Jeremy Heere is your average, nothing-special teenager at Middleborough High School in nothing-special New Jersey. That is, until the day he finds out about ‘The Squip.’ Thus begins a journey that pits Jeremy’s desire to be popular against his struggle to remain true to his authentic self.

Greg Berlanti’s shingle Berlanti Productions and Shawn Levy’s 21 Laps Entertainment have been brought on to produce a film version of the Broadway-bound musical “Be More Chill.”
“Be More Chill” asks the question, what if popularity came in a pill? Would you take it, no questions asked? According to the show’s website, in “Be More Chill,” achieving the “perfect life” is now possible thanks to some mysterious new technology — but it comes at a cost that’s not as easy to swallow.
It follows a bullied high school junior Jeremy Heere, who feels like an outcast and tries to improve his social status. With a father who is so depressed he won’t even put on pants, Jeremy is persuaded to take a pill called a Squip that will help make him cool. The pill has a computer chip that embeds itself into the brain and tells kids what to do.

Exclusive: A wild chase has ended with Shawn Levy’s 21 Laps and Greg Berlanti’s Berlanti Productions being chosen as the producers to shepherd a movie adaptation of Be More Chill, a Broadway-bound musical that became a viral sensation with young audiences even before its recent Off Broadway staging. Already, music from the high school-set sci-fi musical has generated an unprecedented amount of song streams.
Watch a couple samples from the Off Broadway production below.
I’m told that many producers chased this one over the past couple of days. Among the producers I’ve heard were Color Force’s Nina Jacobson, Imagine Entertainment, Michael De Luca, Marty Bowen’s Temple Hill, Scooter Braun, Jennifer Todd and Bob Zemeckis’ ImageMovers. Next step will be to enlist a studio. Both 21 Laps and Berlanti have their first look deals with Fox.

Joe Iconis’ Be More Chill – the musical that sold-out its 10-week Off Broadway run after a 2015 cast album went viral – will get its anticipated Broadway run. Performances begin Wednesday Feb. 13, 2019, with an official opening on Sunday, March 10, at Broadway’s Lyceum Theatre.
“The fact that I get to make my Broadway debut as a writer surrounded by so many long-time collaborators and beloved friends both on stage and behind the scenes is a literal dream come true,” says Joe Iconis (NBC’s Smash). “Be More Chill has surprised me and Joe Tracz every step of the way and we can’t believe that our celebration of misfits, losers, and underdogs gets to take up residence on 45th Street.”
Be More Chill, features music and lyrics by Iconis and a book by Tracz (Netflix’s Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events) based on the cult novel by Ned Vizzini.

Theater producers are asking Joe Iconis how he did it. How did the composer turn a low-profile musical with the tween-friendly title Be More Chill, originally staged to little fanfare three years ago at a New Jersey regional theater, into a sold-out Off Broadway wonder?
Iconis, a writer and performer most widely known for songs he wrote for NBC’s Smash, has his theories about how a fairly traditional musical – albeit with a sci-fi twist and a certain high school glee – inspired millions of people around the world to post Be More Chill fan art, stream the cast album more than 150 million times and become Tumblr’s second-ranked “most talked about” musical following Hamilton, and all before singing its first note in New York?
In short, how did a musical go viral?

Technology plays a major role onstage in “Be More Chill,” the high school-set musical that uses a brain altering super-computer — masquerading as a popularity drug — as a plot device to poke satirical fun at the all-consuming, all-connecting dangers of faceless social media and needy groupthink.
But tech also played a backstage role in this production of composer Joe Iconis and book-writer Joe Tracz’s musical, now playing Off Broadway after a brief 2015 run at New Jersey’s Two River Theater. What Jersey couldn’t do for Iconis’ 80s New Wave-ish musical score, the internet has made up for. Its electro pop-inspired tunes (think “Stranger Things” with a hammily melodic Broadway through line) went viral, racking up 150 million+ streams in the United States alone, to say nothing of the fan art shared from Japan to New Jersey. Given the might of the meme, commercial producers took a chance on “Chill.”

Ned Vizzini has died at 32. The author of "It's Kind of a Funny Story" and a writer on TV shows like "Teen Wolf," "Last Resort" and J.J. Abrams' upcoming "Believe," committed suicide in New York on Thursday (Dec. 19).
The writer's brother, Daniel Vizzini, confirmed the death followed a fall off their parents' apartment building in Brooklyn, and the city's medical examiner concluded that Vizzini had died from injuries consistent with a fall (as reported by ABC News). Vizzini's family said that the young man had struggled with depression and mental illness throughout much of his life.
Although a resident of Los Angeles over the past few years, Vizzini grew up in New York City. His struggle with depression in the midst of early success (he wrote a column for the New York Times as a teen) eventually provided much of the material in Vizzini's first novel, "It's Kind of a Funny Story.

Vizzini, who received considerable praise for his writing, often tackled the themes of depression and anxiety in teens from his own experience. His brother Daniel Vizzini told reporters that the author jumped off the roof of his parents’ apartment building in Brooklyn and suffered blunt impact injuries.
Vizzini is perhaps best known for It’s Kind of a Funny Story, which was published in 2006 and turned into a movie in 2012. It was more or less based on his experience in a Brooklyn hospital psychiatric ward in 2004.
In 2004, Vizzini’s debut novel Be More Chill hit the shelves and received favorable notices from critics. Based off the success of the novel, Vizzini received a contract to write two more books, which he struggled to complete. His frustration drove him to contemplate...

It’s always tragic when lives are cut way too short. Writer/author Ned Vizzini was only 32. He died yesterday in New York by suicide, leaving behind a wife and a young son. Vizzini’s third book, the 2006 semi-autobiographical It’s Kind Of A Funny Story, which was adapted as a 2010 movie co-starring Zach Galifianakis, dealt with depression and centered on a teenager driven to suicide attempts by the pressures of high school. Vizzini had a promising TV career and was a staff writer on NBC’s upcoming Alfonso Cuaron/J.J. Abrams drama series Believe at the time of his death, which came during the series’ hiatus. His colleagues are said to be devastated by the news. “We are incredibly saddened at the loss of our dear friend and colleague Ned Vizzini,” Cuaron and Abrams’ Bad Robot said. “On behalf of everyone in the Believe family, we offer our deepest...

It hit me like an electric shock last night to find out that my friend, the writer Ned Vizzini, took his own life in New York yesterday at age 32. He was one of the most enthusiastic, vibrant people I knew; his classic Ya novel It's Kind of a Funny Story (which was adapted into a film in 2010) was based on Ned's own stay in a psychiatric hospital after he was gripped by suicidal thoughts in his early twenties, but that still doesn't make it any easier to believe that those feelings bested him now, because when I think of Ned, I think of that happy, crooked smile that you barely had to coax out of him.I met Ned very randomly at a Human Rights Watch event a few years ago. All of his books (including Be More Chill and The Other Normals) are about outsiders, and at this...

Bestselling author, television writer and essayist Ned Vizzini died Thursday, The Los Angeles Times reports. The cause of death was suicide. Vizzini was the author of young-adult books "It's Kind of a Funny Story, "The Other Normals," "Be More Chill" and "Teen Angst? Naah..." He also wrote for MTV's "Teen Wolf," the ABC drama series, "Last Resort" and, most recently, for NBC's "Believe," the forthcoming series from J.J. Abrams and Alfonso Cuarón. He began writing for The New York Press at age 15, and since then his essays and criticism have appeared in the New York Times, the Daily Beast and other publications. He is the coauthor with Chris Columbus of the fantasy-adventure series "House of Secrets." Vizzini suffered from depression, and his five-day stay at a hospital's psychiatric ward inspired "It's Kind of a Funny Story," which told the story of a depressed young man who becomes suicidal and checks into a psychiatric hospital.

Continuing to mix up his big studio fare with his smaller, more personal projects, Ryan Reynolds has just signed up to star in Mississippi Grind. He'll be joining Ben Mendelsohn, in a film that is co-written and directed by Half Nelson's Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck.The story takes place in America's deep south, and involves down-on-his-luck gambler Mendelsohn teaming up for a road trip with hot-shot younger gambling addict Reynolds in an attempt to break his losing streak.Half Nelson evolved out of a short film, and Boden & Fleck's follow up It's Kind Of A Funny Story was an adaptation of Ned Vizzini's novel. Mississippi Grind, however, seems to be an entirely original screenplay. Jamie Patricof and Lynette Howell (Half Nelson, The Place Beyond The Pines) are producing, along with John Lesher (End Of Watch).We'll next see Reynolds in R.I.P.D. on September 20, and he's also recently...

Chris Columbus (above) can now add novelist to his skills roster. The Goonies writer and director of Home Alone and two Harry Potters has his first novel out, House of Secrets, a young-adult book co-written with Ned Vizzini. Starting as a screenplay, it turned into a novel because there was not “enough money on Earth to turn it into a film”.

Director Chris Columbus is king of the family film and now he's written a children's novel. Elaine Lipworth meets him
The new children's book House of Secrets was written by a first-time novelist but there are already predictions that it will be a runaway bestseller. The author, Chris Columbus, has had a firm finger on the pulse of pre-teens ever since Macaulay Culkin was left home alone to defend the house from bumbling burglars. Best known as a film-maker, Columbus directed that 1990 comedy as well as other blockbusters including Mrs Doubtfire and the first two Harry Potter films. He is the undisputed king of family films.
The director's literary debut is an adventure about a family who move into a spooky house once owned by a mysterious pulp-fiction author. The parents go missing and the children find themselves trapped inside a dangerous imaginary world. Written with a co-author, Ned Vizzini,...

Last Resort, Season 1, Episode 7: “Nuke It Out”
Written by Nick Antosca and Ned Vizzini
Directed by Michael Offer
Airs Thursdays at 8pm (Et) on ABC
Despite essentially amounting to Last Resort’s version of a standalone, last week’s episode did a lot to advance a few plots, the most important of which was the theft of Captain Chaplin’s firing key. With one of the necessary triggers for launching the nuclear missiles now out of Chaplin’s hands, his leverage is significantly reduced, and all he can do right now against the Us government is bluff, and hope they don’t call him on it. Thus, finding the key and getting it back to Chaplin is practically the only way to guarantee that Us forces don’t take the USS Colorado and its crew out entirely, so it made perfect sense that the hunt for the key formed the main storyline this week,...

Is it possible that I've been too hard on Teen Wolf for eschewing all its credibility to become so outwardly gay? It's no secret that in the past two years, Teen Wolf has bypassed being homo-friendly and gone full homosexual, which I have to explain is not a problem that exists only in this show: plenty of shows struggle—many unsuccessfully—with catering to its fanbase verses creating a great show, regardless. It's a Pretty Little Liars problem, it's a Vampire Diaries problem, it's a problem for any show whose persistent fans want millions of different versions of their ideal show. And I'm fully aware that my ideal Teen Wolf heavily skews my opinion of it each week, but doesn't yours? Doesn't everyone's?
