Calling all John Green fans out there!
After the success of The Fault in Our Stars and Paper Towns on the big screen, John Green announces that another one of his books will be getting an adaptation soon! And this time, it's with streaming site Hulu for an 8-episode series.
Looking for Alaska will be adapted into an eight-episode limited series on Hulu–with Josh and Stephanie (who've stuck with this for 13 YEARS!) running the show. I'm excited. Hope you are, too. https://t.co/RqzJYbq115

According to Deadline, Hulu is now finalizing the deal with Paramount Television and Fake Empire's Stephanie Savage and Josh Schwartz who also penned the show's pilot episode. Schwartz is also set to be Looking For Alaska's showrunner and executive producer.
Looking For Alaska was published in 2005 and was Green's first novel. It follows Miles "Pudge" Halter, who's fascinated with famous last words and is always seeking for the "the Great Perhaps". Tired of his safe life back home, he transfers to Culver Creek where he meets Alaska Young who later pulls him into her labyrinth.
The cast and the release date of the show are yet to be announced. To keep yourselves updated, you may keep checking back on John Green's website, Facebook, and Twitter pages.
