To find out what they had to say about The Relic, check out the video embedded above.
Directed by Peter Hyams from a screenplay that came from the combined forces of Amy Holden Jones, John Raffo, Rick Jaffa, and Amanda Silver, The Relic was based on a novel by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child. The film has the following synopsis: Come in – if you dare. The opening-night gala for a new exhibit at Chicago’s natural history museum is under way.

Spike TV and "The Walking Dead" producer Gale Anne Hurd are teaming for "Pendergast," a TV drama series adaptation of Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child's best-selling novel series following the character of FBI special agent Aloysius Pendergast.
In the novels the character is a highly intelligent, well-mannered, aloof and eccentric slender man who comes from a rich Louisiana family, most of whom are committed or deceased. His wife was killed by a lion years before in Africa, and his brother driven criminally insane during a traumatic childhood incident. Agent Pendergast usually investigates various serial killings, many of which have a highly unusual style to them.
Fifteen novels in the series have been published so far and dealt with everything from diamond heists and zombie cults to a genetically altered beast in the museum of natural history. The first novel in the series, "Relic," was adapted into the 1997 feature "The Relic" but omitted Pendergast's character,...

Academy Award-winning filmmaker and documentarian Errol Morris tells The Playlist that he's planning an adaptation of Richard Preston’s non-fiction work "The Demon in the Freezer".
Preston’s 2002 book explores the U.S. government’s relationship with the biological weapons anthrax and smallpox, focusing on both the “Smallpox Eradication Program” in the ‘60s and ‘70s and the threat of anthrax circa 9/11. Much like 'Hot Zone' or films like "Traffic", the text follows several different storylines in different countries and times.
Preston authored 1994's "The Hot Zone" which was a hot property that Hollywood tried to adapt in the mid-90's until rival project "Outbreak" opened and beat it to the punch. Preston also penned 2007's "The Wild Trees", while his brother Douglas Preston is the best-selling co-author of the Pendergast book series along with Lincoln Child.

Chap Taylor ("Changing Lanes") is set to pen a script adaptation of Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child's upcoming novel "Gideon's Sword" for Paramount Pictures says Heat Vision.
The first in a twelve book series, the story follows Gideon Crew who, two decades on, gets revenge for the brutal murder of his father. However a mysterious witness to the crime steps forward and offers Crew "the chance of a lifetime".
Michael Bay will produce the feature through his Bay Films. Preston and Child have published thirteen horror and techno-thriller themed New York Times bestsellers together over the past fifteen years including Brimstone, The Cabinet of Curiosities, Still Life with Crows, Cemetery Dance, Fever Dream, Riptide and Thunderhead. Their first collaboration, 1995's museum monster story "Relic", was adapted two years later by Paramount into 1997's "The Relic".

Heat Vision have news this morning that Michael Bay has signed Chap Taylor (who wrote the screenplay for Ben Affleck/Samuel L Jackson-starrer Changing Lanes) for scripting duties on his adaptation of “Gideon’s Sword” for Paramount.
Gideon’s Sword is a 12-part book series by Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child about a hero who has the ability to convince people of anything. The first part is out in book stores in February 2011, but clearly someone thinks it is good enough material to want to get cracking with the film rights straight away.
The hero in question will use his powers to try to free his falsely-accused father, who has been imprisoned by the Nsa. Presumably that will be more of a challenge than simply saying to the guards, “this is not the man you are looking for, you want to let him go”, otherwise how do you fill 12 volumes? As Heatvision surmise,...

So far, the only writing credit Chap Taylor has on his resume is for the script to the 2002 thriller Changing Lanes starring Ben Affleck and Samuel L. Jackson. Now he's finally lined up his next big writing gig as Heat Vision reports Taylor has been hired to write the adaptation of the forthcoming Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child novel Gideon's Sword for Paramount Pictures as well as producer Michael Bay via his Bay Films production company. The story follows Gideon Crew, a man who can convince people of almost anything as he tries to clear the name of his wrongfully imprisoned father and possibly save the world at the same time. Paramount and Bay hope to kick-start a Jason Bourne-style franchise that will bring all of the action that Bay usually delivers but with attempts to include some substantial character development. Taylor says he's infinitely excited about the work, especially ...

In a recent article, entertainment website Variety broke news of Michael Bay’s latest project; the big screen adaptation of author Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child’s upcoming addition to their library of fiction, Gideon’s Sword. The “techno-thriller” story of both the book and movie follows the character Gideon Crew throughout his adventures.
The book, Gideon’s Sword, is to be the first in a new series of Gideon Crew novels penned by Preston/Child, both known to specialize in thrillers and horror. Having both become notable authors in their own right, they’ve come together on several occasions to write New York Times best sellers such as the 1995 novel that started the partnership, Relic, as well as their latest success Fever Dream, which was released May the 11th of this year to roaring acclaim.

Briefly: Paramount has picked up a new novel for Michael Bay to produce, to bookend his I Am Number Four project over at DreamWorks. Gideon's Sword was just bought by the studio, reportedly in a seven-figure deal, and Bay will develop and produce a film adaptation through his company Bay Films. Variety says the deal is a classic angency package -- Wme reps both Bay and the novel's authors Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child. Ding! Deal time. The book isn't scheduled for publication until February 2011. It is the first novel in a new series of books from Preston and Child, who typically work in a science/adventure/thriller mode reminiscent of Michael Chrichton. All we know is that the book kicks off the 'Gideon Crew' series, which implies that as the name of the lead character. More on this one as it develops.

Paramount has acquired the rights to the upcoming novel Gideon's Sword, and Michael Bay will be on hand to oversee production of the film adaptation.
The novel, which has been written by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child, is a spinoff from the pair's popular Agent Pendergast series and focuses on the character Gideon Crew. No plot details centering on the titular investigator are available yet, with the novel scheduled for a February 2011 release.
Gideon's Sword will be the first in a new series of books that will run concurrently with the Agent Pendergast series, so if all goes well presumably there may be a film franchise in the making too.

My answers are generally A) "Yes, really," B) "I've not only read and enjoyed the Douglas Preston / Lincoln Child novel, but also its entertaining sequel called Reliquary," and C) "It's a rather underrated and energetic horror flick that didn't make much of a splash in '97 but sure seems to have its fair share of fans now."
