Robbie's ACOTAR Dream: Maas Holds Rights Back

Actress and producer Margot Robbie has publicly shared her deep admiration for Sarah J. Maas's bestselling fantasy series, A Court of Thorns and Roses (ACOTAR) and Throne of Glass. Robbie has described herself as a "serial re-reader" of these popular books. She even met with Maas in 2024, expressing that "the world needs that" TV adaptation and indicating she would explore possibilities as a producer.

However, any ACOTAR TV show is likely to be delayed. Sarah J. Maas announced in early March 2026 that she has regained all rights to her works, which were previously held by Disney. Maas stated that her current focus is on delivering the next installments of her announced book series. She clarified that she is not prioritizing TV adaptations at this moment, indicating a strategic pause on screen projects.

While Hulu had previously considered an ACOTAR series, those plans fell through approximately a year prior to the current date. The situation remains fluid, with both Robbie and Maas expressing a mutual appreciation for Maas's literary work. Fans await future developments, hoping for a collaboration between the two prominent figures in entertainment and literature.
