In The Lost Lands is an adaptation of one of George R.R. Martin's lesser-known short stories, and despite there being relatively little news so far there's already a great deal of anticipation for the movie — especially since the cast is led by Milla Jovovich and Dave Bautista. While best known for the TV series Game of Thrones, Martin has written a multitude of fiction set in worlds that aren't Westeros, including the short story In The Lost Lands. Now, production company Dream Bros Entertainment is turning In The Lost Lands into a movie with Paul W.S. Anderson directing and both Milla Jovovich and Dave Bautista in the lead roles.
In The Lost Lands tells the story of a powerful sorceress, Gray Alys, who is hired by a queen to provide her with the power of shape-shifting, and she heads out into the titular Lost Lands with a wanderer to find what she needs. The story then sees Gray encounter all manner of danger, only to find she has more in common with the warrior who accompanies her into battle than with the powerful queen. In The Lost Lands has been shot and there is still a lot of work needed behind the scenes for special effects, but development is well underway. Here is everything viewers need to know about In The Lost Lands and what to expect from the George R. R. Martin adaptation.

The most recent In the Lost Lands news, George R. R. Martin posted an update in February 2023 on the production process for the movie. The update on In The Lost Lands came in the form of a post on X (the former Twitter), where Martin wrote that "the film still has a lot of work yet to do, so it won’t appear until 2024, but here's a little update." He followed that with a link to his personal blog.

He then cast both his wife Milla Jovovich and Guardians of the Galaxy star Dave Bautista in the lead roles in 2021. However, there is no word on the In The Lost Lands release date other than the fact the movie has been shot and is planned for a 2024 release.

The two had worked together on the Resident Evil franchise before this as well as the Monster Hunter video game adaptation. Now, Jovovich will be back with Anderson for the In The Lost Lands cast as the lead character, a powerful sorceress named Gray Alys. A queen who wants to gift of shape-shifting hires Alys to achieve her goals, a quest that sees Alys heading to the titular Lost Lands

In The Lost Lands Story
The In The Lost Lands story is based on a short story by Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin. In the short story, a powerful sorceress named Gray Alys offers the endless power of magic to anyone who will pay her for it. People often offer her money, and she makes their wishes come true, albeit with a price. When a queen wants the ability of shape-shifting, Gray has to head into the dangerous Lost Lands with a warrior named Boyce to find what she needs. Since this was a short story, there will need to be a lot added for a movie, but the bones are in place for the In The Lost Lands story.
