‘The Merlin Saga’: Another Origin Story

Source:slashfilm

Come Off It now Disney this is getting silly, haven't you got

enough on your hands. 

Disney have set to work on The Merling saga. The Merlin 

saga was a series of 12 books, that began with the famous

wizard as a boy getting his memory erased?

Disney are working on adapting the T.A. Barron's The Merlin 

Saga, and to write the adaptation, they've enlisted Academy 

award winning screenwriter Phillippa Boyens (The Lord Of 

The Rings) So I'm guessing we are going to get a twenty 

hour trilogy of the life of Merlin.  

Barron's the writer of the books had this to say on his

website about the current status of the adaptation.

This whole movie experience is, let me tell you, one AMAZING journey. With a plot even more bizarre than one of my fantasy novels. But I’m glad to tell you the big news: The Lost Years of Merlin film is making great progress. I’m very excited about what lies ahead! Because I can’t keep up with all the questions and comments from fans, I will update this page regularly. Any big news that I can share will be announced right here on this page. After all, you folks are my companions on this journey!
The First book in Barron's series, ''The Lost Years Of Merlin''
was published in 1996, and below you can read the official 
book synopsis.
A raging sea tosses a boy upon the shores of ancient Wales. Left for dead, he has no memory, no name, and no home. But it is his determination to find out who he is—to learn the truth about his mysterious powers—that leads him to a strange and enchanted land. And it is there he discovers that the fate of this land and his personal quest are strangely entwined.
