## Summary

Brandon Sanderson says the second draft of his Mistborn film script is half complete, offering a progress update on the Apple adaptation. The news suggests the film is receiving priority among Apple’s planned adaptations of his work, while a television version of The Stormlight Archive remains at an earlier stage.

Sanderson completed the first draft in late July, around six months after signing a deal with Apple to adapt several novels. He is also writing other books: the first Ghostbloods novel is planned for late 2028, with the next two due in 2029 and 2030. He hopes to begin releasing the second part of The Stormlight Archive, covering books six to ten, around 2031.
