While we wait to find out more details, here’s what we know about the Circe adaptation for TV so far. That said, nothing has been shared about Circe by HBO in the last couple of years, so let’s hope this is just a waiting game while they perfect casting and filming rather than second thoughts. HBO’s Circe was given an expected release date of 2021, which here at the end of 2022 realistically means 2023 at the earliest. I can’t wait to see what they do with Circe’s story, and most of all I love that they are keeping the Witch of Aiaia firmly at the center of her own epic journey–just where she belongs.” “As an author, it is an honor to have my work in the hands of such passionate, experienced, and thoughtful people.
Now, this news has been around for a while.
While we’re waiting on Madeline Miller’s next book, there’s some more good news to look forward to: Circe is being adapted as an HBO Max series. When her gift threatens the gods, she is banished to the island of Aiaia where she hones her occult craft, casting spells, gathering strange herbs and taming wild beasts.īut she won’t be left in peace for long, and it’s for an unexpected visitor, the mortal Odysseus, for whom Circe will risk everything. Published in 2018, Circe is Madeline Miller’s defiant reimagining of the daughter of Helios, the sun god, and the ocean nymph Perse, known in myth as a dangerous sorceress, perhaps the most dangerous woman a man could come across. While it’s up for debate whether Circe or The Song of Achilles is the better book (I am firmly on Team Circe), I’m certain that many readers will agree with me that Madeline Miller is one of the best writers of the last decade.
