Palm-Star Options Lunar Park

News has finally come out on who bought the film rights to Lunar Park - its Palm-Star Entertainment.

"We believed in Lunar Park so strongly that we put in a pre-emptive bid the very next day after it came to us", said Kevin Frakes, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Palm-Star Entertainment. "We were in a bit of a battle, but it was personal for our company and we went the extra mile to close the deal". Palm-Star has been fielding interest from producers, directors and writers, but are taking their time in packaging the project.

"Lunar Park is the most personal book I've written even if on the surface it reads like a thriller. It took a long time to complete and Palm-Star has known about the book from the beginning. And they witnessed the usual complaints, anxieties, and excitement that occur when you're completing a novel." Concedes author Bret Easton Ellis. "Now it's their turn to move through that process."
