Movies of Terry Pratchett books
-
Do any of you guys know if there has been a movie made of any Terry Pratchett book? Not an animated film a movie with real actors. I believe that Edie Redmayne would be great as Rincewind, and Harrison Ford would be a great Captain Vimes.

I remember seeing The Colour of Magic (TV Mini-Series 2008) - IMDb[^] somewhere. I thought it was a movie from the 80's though, so I must be thinking of something else. Anyway, here's an overview: TV and film adaptations - Discworld & Terry Pratchett Wiki[^] ;) Good Omens seems nice.

I've seen one of Going Postal (wasn't too bad - Charles Dance was appropriate as Lord Ventinari) - although technically it was a series, as there were two episodes. And as Sander says, Good Omens was good (also a series)

I'd go with MacKenzie Crook and Ralph Fiennes

The three movies are well worth watching many times. We're always picking up new details such as in one of the movies there is a leather jacket with "Born To Rune" which references one of the other books. There's a lot of details in a lot of the scenes, my family & I enjoy trying to spot them. Good Omens while not a Discworld novel is still really good, although I'd recommend reading the book first.

Thank you. Your Info was most helpful. I found and am watching "Hogfather" on YouTube right now. :) :) :)

Going Postal, Making Money and Unseen Academicals are probably my favorite DiscWorld books. Found a version of Going Postal but it was in German, and I am mono-lingual :sigh: Thanks for the reply.

There are apparently new "definitive" screen adaptations in the works:
Narrativia[^]:
Narrativia, Motive Pictures and Endeavor Content announce a brand new partnership which will bring this treasured world to screens in a series of prestige adaptations that remain absolutely faithful to Sir Terry Pratchett’s original, unique genius.
