As happens so often, two people got the same great idea. Elton John will be making a movie combining Jane Austen with hostile aliens getting thrown into an English costume drama.
Likewise, a book is being published offering the same idea, only with zombies rather than aliens. Evidently film studios are anxious for the chance to adapt it into a film.
The idea common to both of them is worthy of a post in itself, but I'm always fascinated by the phenomenon of virtually identical movies ramping up and getting released at about the same time. It seems to happen so often.
