I frequently get emails inquiring about the status of the movie. As challenging as it is on the inside of this process, I can imagine how hard it is waiting and wondering what is going on for those on the outside of it for whom this story holds great importance.
As the facilitator and protector of the John Mack movie, my job, among other things, is to ensure that it does not become another "scary alien movie" or the opportunity will have been lost. Our ultimate partners are very important.
We are not just sitting on our hands waiting. On the contrary.
We have been speaking and meeting with many directors, writers and companies - i.e., we have been in contact with Amblin several times and Bad Robot - they are aware of the material, but the timing has not been right so far.
Here's what I know for sure - there is a divine timing and a divine orchestration to a story/movie this big and I cannot push against it. It doesn’t work.
I compare this process to the process of finding a soul mate or marriage partner. You date some nice people, you date some not so nice people. It can get pretty downright frustrating and puzzling - but either way, you can’t force it - until it’s right, it’s just not right. I also know that when it is right, and because it is divinely inspired, the result is glorious.
If you're reading this post, than I believe you understand these principles. I surely believe that Dr. Mack would.
Sincerely,
Denise David Williams
