Jack Thorne, who adapted LTROI into a play, as well as co-writing "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" play has been hired by Disney to rewrite the script for Star Wars: Episode IX. Besides being a playwright, Thorne has also adapted several sci-fi and fantasy novels into teleplays for the BBC such as Philip Pullman's "His Dark Materials", and Richard K. Dick's "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sleep", which was also famously adapted in the early 80s by Ridley Scott as "Blade Runner":
