    I feel like splitting it would be a harder pitch to studios since it’s not a recognizable IP. Sure you have a beloved actor in the lead role and quite a few people love the directors, but honestly how many average people knew about this book before the movie’s announcement in comparison to something like Hobbit or Dune?
