James Cameron announced on Facebook that Lightstorm Entertainment has acquired the rights to Joe Abercrombie’s novel The Devils. The book was published on May 6, 2025. It debuted at No. 1 on the Sunday Times bestseller list in the UK and reached No. 5 on the New York Times list. Cameron will co-write the film adaptation with Abercrombie after completing Avatar: Fire and Ash.

In his post, Cameron wrote, “I can’t wait to dig into this as I wind down on Avatar: Fire and Ash. It will be a joyful new challenge for me to bring these indelible characters to life.” Describing the book, he said, “A twisted, stylish, alt-universe middle-ages romp… The twists and turns come at a rollercoaster pace, and with Joe’s signature acerbic wit and style.” He praised Abercrombie’s storytelling as “very cinematic,” noting that “this adaptation will practically write itself.”

Joe Abercrombie responded to the announcement, saying, “James Cameron has been thrilling audiences, including me, by putting the impossible on film for over four decades.” He added, “No one can balance mind-blowing action and spectacle with gut-wrenching personal stakes and story the way he does.”

Cameron said he has followed Abercrombie’s work for years but The Devils finally led him to pursue a collaboration. He wrote, “The freshness of the world and the characters in The Devils finally got me off my butt to buy one of his books and partner with him to bring it to the screen.”

Disney plans to release Cameron’s Avatar: Fire and Ash on December 19, 2025.
