LAIKA Live Action has tapped filmmakers Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck to adapt and direct a live-action film based on bestselling author Taylor Jenkins Reid’s upcoming novel, Atmosphere, a sweeping romance set against the backdrop of the 1980s space shuttle program. Matt Levin, LAIKA’s President, Live Action Film & Series, said, “There are no better filmmakers to adapt Taylor's story for the screen than Ryan and Anna, who throughout their amazing careers have crafted deeply human stories set against canvases of stunning cinematic spectacle." Atmosphere will be a LAIKA production in association with Circle M+P. Travis Knight, Matt Levin, Boden & Fleck, Taylor Jenkins Reid, and Brad Mendelsohn will produce, and Jeremy Kipp Walker will serve as executive producer. https://lnkd.in/gQ7DfvHK

We had such a great Earth Month this year, thanks to our hardworking Sustainability Committee! LAIKAns learned how to revive garments and properly propagate and repot plants, and were treated to an Earth-themed party. We also introduced a Scrap Shack to give discarded materials a second life and launched a new, permanent initiative eliminating single-use items in our on-site coffee shop. #LifeAtLAIKA #Sustainability
