A project is listed only when a studio or streamer press release, or the trade press (Deadline, Variety or The Hollywood Reporter), reports it. Fan blogs and adaptation round-ups only point us to a project; they are never the source. The source date is the date of the newest of those reports that gives the current status, and every source is linked with its own date. A release date appears only when a studio, a streamer or the author announces one.
We recheck every project at least every 30 days, and sooner after big announcements such as the streamers' upfront presentations. For the books themselves, with spice levels and content notes, see the book pages.
