Cancelled film adaptation
In 2008, Blue Sky Studios acquired the film rights for an animated film titled Anubis. David H. Steinberg wrote the first draft for the film. The film was originally scheduled for release on July 15, 2016, by 20th Century Fox, but was delayed to March 23, 2018,[2][3][4] but, by June 2017, it had been removed from its schedule for unknown reasons.[5] In February 2021, Disney (which bought Fox in 2019) announced that Blue Sky would shut down in April, and cancelled Anubis.[6]
