It's been 12 years since Universal Pictures released Dragon Heart and the studio is ready to jump back into the dragon mythology once again. HR is reporting that the studio has bought the rights to Dugald A. Steer's faux non-fiction children's book series Dragonology. Scribe Leonard Hartman has been tapped to both write and executive produce the first adaptation of the series.
Plot Concept: Based around the premise that dragons actually exist as revealed by the Victorian dragonologist Ernest Drake. An underlying theme is that dragons should be studied and revered in the same way as any rare species.
Hartman's fantasy adventure take revolves around a group of dragonologists who go on a globetrotting quest to keep a corrupt man from taking control of the world's dragons and using them to wipe out humanity.
