Bitten TV Series: Author Addresses Adaptation Concerns

Concerns about the “Bitten” TV series adaptation are common. Author Kelley Armstrong addresses these concerns, assuring fans that the show is a separate entity and won’t affect the books. She acknowledges the initial Canadian release limits access for international fans but assures wider distribution is likely. Armstrong trusts the show’s production team to reimagine her story for television, focusing on her own writing while allowing the visual adaptation to unfold.

Changes are inevitable, she notes, but they enhance the story for the screen without impacting the books. Casting choices prioritize acting talent and capturing the character’s essence over physical resemblance. Armstrong recalls considering Angelina Jolie for Elena, highlighting the importance of understanding the role over appearance. This applies to the current “Bitten” cast.

Armstrong encourages viewers to approach the show with an open mind, like starting a new book. She emphasizes the team’s dedication to quality and urges viewers to trust the creative process.
