, the original novel coming in late March and following up on the events of the March 14-released feature film, was in fact based on the story that was first intended to be the movie.While it’s already been established that the book will take place in the same “universe” as the long-cancelled TV series and the upcoming movie and that future film and TV projects would not ignore the story, Thomas told fans via the movie’s Kickstarter page today that not only will the story inform a second novel (due in late 2014), but if another movie were to be made, there’s a chance they might just adapt The Thousand-Dollar Tan Line.” If you want to know what happens next after the movie, the book will tell you that,” Thomas wrote. “But you won’t need to read the book to get closure. The film — which I wrote before I ever knew there would be novels — is able to stand alone. That said…The books will exist in the same official ‘universe’ as the series and film. Sometimes, novels that build on the events of television shows or films are isolated spin-off stories, or adventures that seem to take place in some forgettable parallel universe. This is not one of those times. The Thousand Dollar Tan Line is the actual next chapter in Veronica’s life.”
