<p>Those asking "Well, with so many book-to-TV series adaptations in development by Apple, Amazon, Netflix, Hulu etc., why not one for Enders Game?", I suggest reading through this November 2013 article on Variety.</p><p>
</p><p>Key is that after the Ender's Game movie flopped at both the U.S. and international box office, Lionsgate CEO Jon Feltheimer said during a conference call with analysts that an Ender’s Game TV spinoff was under consideration at that time. No word from the studio on that decision, but it's clear that a TV series approach is needed. Many people have already known that the Ender's Game movie was pretty rushed, and a botched opportunity. That Ender's Game TV spinoff was what is probably going to be the reboot of the entire franchise.</p><p>
</p><p>So the short answer is that ever since there was discussion of the advantages of television as a suitable medium for book-to-screen adaptations, there has been some mention of an Ender's Game reboot on TV, with naturalistic science fiction. The possible TV reboot will be the first since the 2003 re-imagining of Battlestar Galactica if all things done right.</p>
