Warner Bros. Pictures has scored the rights to Reed King’s forthcoming dystopian-themed novel “FKA USA” which will be produced by Andrew Lazar.
The story re-imagines the United States in a time where, in the wake of environmental disasters and the catastrophic policies of its final president, the Fifty States have seceded and given way to a series of lawless territories.
The story is set in the year 2085 and it will revolve around four central characters: a factory worker in Crunchtown 407, a talking goat, an android who wants to be human, and a former convict lobotomized in Texas.
The quartet will go on a journey across the continent with a sensitive political mission on which the fate of the world may just depend.
