In 1887 H. G. Wells invented the first literary time machine. Years later, time travel has become a popular subject in sci-fi stories.
Novelizations aren’t just a transcription of the film story. They also add details and backstory to the plot in a literary way.
“I liked the film very much but I found working on it incredibly stressful; I would probably not adapt my own work again - you need to have distance from the book.”
